Lecture 10 - bone and cartilage Flashcards
What are the three types of cartilage?
Hyaline
Elastic
Fibro
Where are the three types of cartilage located?
Cartilege is part or all of the skeletal system (which begins as cartilege)
- Hyaline
- external auditory meeatus
- larynx
- tracheal cartilages
- bronchial cartilege
- fetal long bones
- articular end of bones
- Elastic
- Auricle (pinna of ear
- Epiglottis
- Fibro
- Intervertebral discs
- pubic symphsysis
- insertion of some tendons and ligaments
- closely associated with dense CT or Hyaline cartilege
What types of cells are assocated with cartilage?
Chondroblasts- (cartilege forming cells)
Chondrocytes (cartilage maintainence cells)
What is associated with the matrix of cartilage?
- Amorphus ground substance
- Collagen fibers
- type II collagen in HYALINE AND ELASTIC
- TYPE I in FIBRO
What is a lacunae?
Pockets w/ in the matrix where C. blasts/Cytes are found
or
Pockets within bone (haversian system) where osteocytes are found
What are the characteristics of cartilage?
- Lacune = house C. blasts/Cytes
- C blasts build cartilage and matrix
- C. Cytes. maintains them
- Avascular
- diffusion from blood vessels outside of cartilege
What is the structure of cartilage?
- Perichondrium
- Outer fibrous layer
- contains fibroblasts
- Inner chonidrogenic layer
- C. blasts formed then mature to become C. cytes
- C cytes involved in production of colagen adn proteoglycan and secrete chondro nectin
- Outer fibrous layer
- Isogenous group
- 2 - 8 C. Cytes that occupy lacunae
- result of mitotic division
- cells become seperated as they begin to lay down matrix of their own
- Matrix
What are the componets of the matrix? and what are its subdivisions?
- Collagen type 2 (type I for fibro)
- Hyaluronic acid (hyaluranon)
- Chrondronitin Sulfate, keratin sulfate, heparin sulfate
- GAGs
Subdivsions
Territortial Matrix
- surrounds each C. Cyte
- High GAG to Low Collagen ratio
Interterritioral Matrix
- Surrounds territoral Matrix
- High Collagen to Low GAG ratio
WHat are the characteristics of Hyaline cartilage?
- TYPE II Collagen Fibers (on TEST)
- Avascular
- Most common
- Surrounding Perichondrium
- Solif but flexable
- Chrondrocytes are group
- Growth Pattern
- Appositional (width)
- Interstitial Grown (from within)
- Blue/ gray to white translucent
What is elastic cartilage?
Surrounded by perichondrium
yellowish b/c elastic fiber
move opaque , flexible, and elastic than hyaline
C cytes are located singly
type 2 collagen w/ elastic fibers
What are the characteristics of fibro cartilage?
Increased collagen in matrix
reuced cellularity
not surronded by perichondrium
type 1 collagen
single sparse C cytes
Opaque appearance
What are these tissues
Hyaline
What are these tissues?
Elastic
What are these tissues
Fibro
What are the three types of bone tissue ?
Woven
Spongey (trabeuclar, cancellus )
Compact (lamellar)
