ch 4 Flashcards
4 main fxn of bone
structural support
levers for muscles/locomotion
protect organs and house bone marrow
metabolic reserve for minerals
bone matrix composition
hydroxyapatite crystals
calcium phosphate
other minerals
organic matrix can be called.. % of dry weight?
osteoid, 35%
collagen type in organic matrix
type 1
parts of the organic matrix
collagen, gag, glycoproteins
sulfated gag parts, nonsulfated
chondroitin and keratin sulfates, hyluronic acid (small amounts of h2o)
what are proteins that bind mineral to collagen
binding proteins
what is the job of glycoproteins
- binding proteins
2. bind matrix components to cells (sialoprotein)
who has higher % of organic matrix
kids = therefore have less inorganic
what will higher organic matrix allow for?
greenstick fractures and flexibility
who has a more random collagen 1 arrangement
kids
what happens to bone as we mature
matrix uniformity = increased stability
what is an osteogenic cell
osteoprogenitor
location of osteoprogenitor
endosteum and periosteum
where are osteoprogenitors usually derived from
mesenchyme cells
fxn of osteoprogenitors
produce: osteiod and the materials which initiate calcification of newly prod bony matrix
what hormone do osteoprogenitors respond to
parathyroid hormone (PTH)
what does the response to PTH do
1.secrete OPGL ( osteoprotegerin ligand)
initiates secretion of osteoclasts
2.secrete osteoclast-stimulating factor
osteorogenitors mitosis?
no
what is the mature version of osteoblast
osteocyte
what does osteocyte look like
conforms to lacuna
location of osteocyte
matrix w/ in lacuna
what are osteocytes derived from
osteoblast
fxn of osteocyte
- maintain bone
- release factors to influence osteoblast activities
- release factors that cause creation of more osteoclasts
