Bone Histology Flashcards
Connective tissue characterized by a mineralized extracellular matrix
Bone
What make up the primary mineralization of bone?
Hydroxyapotite crystals
What is the primary collagen in bone?
Type I collagen fibers
90% of total weight of bone matrix protiens
Also contains
Proteoglycan macromolecules, multiadhesive glycoproteins, Vitamin-K dependent proteins, growth factors; make up small compoenent
Bone
- bone cells, connected via canaliculi.
- Survive 10-20 years.
- Important for maintaining overall structure
- Sense for adaptation
Osteocytes
1 cause of morbitiy in ppl over 80 occurs after what?
bone breakage, seditary
Excersise places pressure on bones causing ____ to secrete more hydroxyappotite making bones denser and stronger
Osteocytes
gives rise to osteoblasts. Respond to markers in ECM, causing htem to differentiaie into osteoblast.
Osteoprogenitor cells
Differentiated bone-forming cell which secretes bone matrix (osteoid matrix)
Osteoblasts
Osteoblasts fo to where the Bone matrix is produced and secretes a _____
Osteoid matrix
Consist of collagen, glycoproteins etc
Osteoid matrix secreted by osteoblasts
Once osteoid matrix is down, ____ is secreted and traps osteoblast in matrix converting them to ___
Hydroxyapotitie, converting to osteocytes
- found on bone surface, derived from osteoblasts.
- Provide a foundation of cells that can quicly differentiate into osteoblasts.
- Bones always under stress microfractures, these cell fix these
Bone lining Cells
- resorb bone they are specialized with enzyme TRAP
Osteoclasts
What is the physiological marker of osteoclasts?
Enzyme TRAP
How do osteoclast function?
- Seal themselves on bone surface
- Clear zone on edge
- Ruffle zone in center, acid released to break down HA, and TRAP breaks down the rest of the EC components.
two types of bone
- Compact (dense)
- Spongey (cancellous
4 classifications of bone
- Long (femur)
- Short (carpals)
- Flat (hip)
- Irregular (vertebrae)
Explain three parts of long bone
- Diaphysis; main shaft
- Metaphysis on middle end
- Epiphysis; on either end lined with articular cartilage to reduce friction.
what part of long bone is cut off with joing replacments?
Metaphysis cut off and replaced with prosthetic
the outer covering of bones
Periosteum
articulating surfaces – then covering is ____; reduce fricion
cartilage
the main component of the periosteum in non-growing bones
Fibrous Layer
- may become osteoblasts with appropriate stimulus
- Important with repair, major break, disrupt periosteal layer, they can differentiatin into osteoblast. Bone producton
Periosteal Cells
