Q

Longitudinal Growth Compact Bone

A

occurs @ epihyseal plate,

as chondrocytes lay the new cartilage at the plate, the cells begin to go through 4 stages to further expand the bone lenght wise.

stage 1 chondrocytes lay the new cartilage
- zone of resting cartilage

stage 2 - chondrocytes begin to divide and proliferate
- proliferating zone

stage 3 - hypertrophic zone
- chondrocytes get bigger

stage 4 - calcification
- osteoclasts eat chondrocytes and signal osteoblasts to lay bone (collagen 1 & 5 )

As this occurs the epihpseal plate gets further away from the chondrocytes and bone

Q

diameter growth of bone

A

osteons contain osteocytes and lamella. outside of osteons we have osteoblasts adn a couple osteoclasts.

for diameter growth. the osteoblasts begin to fold around the perosteum of the bone, circling the blood vessels, creating more concentrics of the osteons

osteocytes get stuck in here and we get a new osteon for diameter growth.

Q

male vs female diameter growth

A

pre puberty - both same growth

puberty - chicks get thicker
- males grow bigger circumference wise

aging - chicks get a little circumference bigger, but the thickness goes down

guys continue to grow circumference big and a bit thicker

circumferecnce never regressses

Q

tension in bone…..

A

both osteoblasts and osteo cytes can sense tension in bone.

when tension arrives, cytes signal blasts VIA GAP JUNCTIONS and tell them to begin secreting collagen and bone apatite

Q

how does resoprtion of bone work

A

osteoclasts secrete H+ions (acid to break down bone)

osteoclasts secrete MMP to break down bone

osteoclasts eat away the bone and resorb it

REGULATED by - hormones and signals to the cytes and blasts

Q

what do steriods do to tendons

A

fibroblasts are senstiive to steroids.

wehn fibroblasts get steroids they secrete lots of collagen . unfortunately this is unnorganizied collagen annd calcium spots in between fibrils and cannot transmit force very well.

the tendon growns thicker but it doesnt produce the most efficent force.

wehn we take steroids we increase force produciton by the muscle. adn evene though our tendon is getting thicker to withstand more force, the muscles are also getting bigger adn produceing too much force.

this is why there is more risk of rupture.

Q

exercise on tendon

A

exercises increases tension

tension increases fibroblast activity adn number.

more activity adn fibroblasts = more collagen,

tension + collagen = organization

organized fibres equal better at transmitting force.

more collagen = thicler tendon = more force transmission

Q

why is a biggger tendon good?

A

bigger tendon is good because -

increase the amount of load/ stress via increasing CSA

decrease the amount of deformation per load.

  • more area = less stresss
  • less force = less stress
49
Q

fibroblasts in muscle can be found in between myofibres

54
Q

which tenon (epi, endo, para) transmits force and what do the others do

epitenon transmit force as it is the most superficial portion of tendon

paratenon - decrease friction agianst other tissues

55

A
  • a mesenchymal cell
  • large fairly
  • 1 nucleus
  • stress fibres are connected to the connective tissue that surrounds them by FAKs - Focal Adhesion Kinases

actin with tropomyosin and troponin

68
Q

how many thin surround thick filaments

A

6 thin around 1 thick

69
Q

what is titin?

A

titin is a structural/accesory protein that spans the entire lenght of a sarcomere - from z-line to m-line

largest protein in our body

gives resting tension to our muscles

allows myosin and actin to contact eachother

can scaffold for other protiens, like dystopphin or inte

coiled up at z disk

when lengthened muscle (relaxed) titin uncoils and reveals tension sensors and signalling proteins.
thesse proteins phosphorylate down to another target protein, chanign gits turning it on configuration therfore important for muscle hypertrophy and growth

70
Q

titin uncoiled

A

titin uncoilded shows its kinase domains as wwell as signalling proteins, thesse proteins phjsophorylate and signal target proteins that can lead to adaptation

71
Q

z disk proteins

A

nebulin, desmin and plectin

72
Q

nebulin

A

lets actin build off it

73
Q

intergrins

A

interns connect the basement mebrane to the fibre

they transmit force alongside dystroglycan complexes - pulling on the contractile fibres of actin via accesory proteins (FAK)

74
Q

costamere

A
  • at the z disk of sarcomeres - act as the anchors and traducers of tension (integrins adn dystroglycan complexs)
75
Q

myotendinous junctin (MTJ)

A

sarcolemma invaginates the tendon at its ECM

high density of costameres, and integrins because lots of tension here

76
Q

FAK

A

focal adhesion kinases - act as the costameres in fibroblasts and in sarcomeres, are connected to integrins which phosphorylate subsequent protiens to their target protein in order to change configuration, important for hypertophy of muscl and growht

77
Q

Muscular Dystophy types

A

Duchene and Beckers - duchene more common - worse

beckers less common and not as bad

78
Q

muscular dytrophy what is

A

something wrong with your dystophin protien whihc connects plasmalemma and contractile proteins - allows us to tranduice force

79
Q

muscular distrophy rates

A

1/20000 have a hereditary myopathy

1/3500 boys have dystrophy = common

80
Q

muscular distrophy cycle

breakdown regeneration cycle

A

fibres chronically breakdown
imfllamatory cells go to the site adn secrete collagen
satellite cells help to repair - but this happens so much those deplete adn then we lose the regeneeration part
