Bone Flashcards
bone
definition
specialized CT (mineralized, rigid)
living tissue (cells, vessels, nerve fibers)
continuously remodeled
storage for minerals (calcium)
regulates blood calcium levels (via hormones)
supports/protects organs
leverage for movement
remodeling
general
pressure applied
bone reabsorption/breakdown
tension on bone
bone deposition (addition)
orthodontics, treat adults and kids
long bone structure
epiphysis head w/ spongy bone
diaphysis shaft w/ compact bone around marrow/medullary cavity
epiphysis head
surrounded by periosteum except articular surface
membranes of bones
periosteum - around bone
endosteum- inside bone
periosteum
external CT capsule covers outer surface except
articular surfaces and tendon insertions
active periosteum
layers:
outer fibrous = collagen
inner cellular = immature bone cells aka osteoprogenitor and osteoblasts
inactive periosteum
mature
outer fibrous = dense irregular collagen CT, blood and lymph vessels, nerves
-anchored by Sharpe’s fibers to prevent sliding
inner cellular= periosteal cells > osteoblasts if needed for repair
-one layer thick
endosteum
internal CT capsule w/ osteoprogenitor cells and osteoblasts
lines bone marrow cavity, spongy bone
contain haversian and volkman canals for small vessels and nerves to reach bone
inorganic component bone matrix
minerals
hydroxyapatite crystals (calcium phosphate)
bicarbonate, citrate, Mg, Na, K
gives bones hardness
organic component bone matrix
proteins
fibers (collagen I)
ground substance (proteoglycans, glycoproteins, growth factors/BMPs)
cells of bone tissue
mesenchymal stem cells
osteoprogenitor cells
osteoblasts
osteocytes
osteoclasts
from mononuclear hemopoietic progenitor cells
break down/ resorb/ remodel/scuplt bone, miners of minerals from matrix
multinucleated, motile, acidophilic
@ howship lacuna-depression on bone
osteoprogenitor cells
early stage immature bone cells
@ deep layer periosteum and endosteum
osteoblasts
cuboidal shape
synthesize osteoid (organic matrix, pre-bone)
non-mineralized
bone lining cells
flat and quiescent
covere surface to protect from osteoclasts
osteocytes
‘grown up’ osteoblasts
maintain matrix
enclosed in lacuna surrounded by bone then surrounded by osteoid halo
chronic renal failure
CRF
inadequate levels of calcium and phosphate ions so osteoid not mineralized
haversian system
osteocytes enclosed in lacuna w/ cytoplasmic processes branching off in canaliculi oriented toward canal
concentric rings around canal
ECM provides nutrients/oxygen/hormones
small artery, vein, nerves, NO lymphatics
osteoclast regions
ruffled border= resorption, breakdown
clear zone= adhesion, seals around bone w/ actin ring
vesicular= exo/endocytosed material
basal = organelles, nuclei
