Bones Flashcards
What is the functions of Bone
Provides support
acts as a lever for effect movement
protection of internal organs
calcium storage
hemopoiesis
what are the cells of bone
osteoblasts , osteocytes and osteclasts
what is the organic extracellular matrix
collagen type 1 , proteoglycans and glyocporitens
what is the inorganic extracellular matrix
minerals - ca , na , mg , po4
what is osteoprogenitor cells derived from
mesenchyme
what is the location of osteoprogenitor cells
on the bone surface under the periosteum
what is the function of the osteoblasts
syntehsis the organic compoents of matrix
where is osteocytes found
found in cavities (lacuane) between layers lamellae of bone matrix
what is osteoclasts
giant cells
what is the function of the osteoclast
respoirtion and remodelling of bone tissue
what does the unmineralzied matric eventually become
mineralisex bone tissue
Bone Mineralisation - what does osteoblasts form
osteoid amd matrix vescile
bone minerlisation - what does osteoid form
type i collagen, glycoproteins and proteoglycans
bone minerlisation - what does matrix vesicles form
alkaline phosphatase
bone mineralisation - what does type i collagen, glycoproteins and proteoglycans cause
increase Ca2+ concentration
bone minerlisation - what does alkaline phosphatase increase
Increases PO4 concentration
bone mineralisation - what does increase in Ca2+ and PO4 concentration cause
formation of CaPO4 crystals
bone mineralisation - what does calcium phosphate crystal
attract water molecules and aggreate into the masses of hydroxyapatite crystals
what do osteoblasts also release
very small membrane enclosed matrix vesicles which contain alkaline phosphate and other enzymes
what are some osteoid components
osteocalcine, binds calcium ions with high affinity
what does osteocytes derived from
oasteoblasts
what are osteocytes not capable of
not capable of mitosis
