May23 M2-Histo 2 Flashcards
types of bone formation (names) (+ other name given to the bone bc of that) depending on type of bone formed (primary woven trabecular vs secondary lamellar same orientation fibers)
- primary bone = intramembranous ossification. (so also called intramembranous bones)
- secondary bone = endochondral ossification (so also called endochondral bones or long bones)
intramembranous ossification where and what
- within a periosteal membrane (periosteum)
- direct mesenchymal condensation and osteoblast differentiation (mes cell to osteoprogenitor to osteoblasts)
endochondral ossification is what
bone growth during development
- cartilage-related
- requires initial cartilage model (anlagen) to degenerate in its center, have its ECM calcify and then serve as substrate for future osteoblasts to attach and form bone on top
bones doing intramembranous ossification
- flat bones*
- cranial vault (top of the skull)
- mandible (lower jawbone)
- maxilla (upper jawbone)
- part of clavicle
- occipital, temporal, parietal bones
bones doing endochondral ossification
- long bones*
- femur
- tibia
- radius
- ulna
- vertebrae
where intramembranous ossification occurs
within plates of mesenchymal cells
intramembranous ossification step 1 and 2
- group mesenchymal cells diff into osteoblast forming a primary ossification center (bone blastema)
- osteoblasts synthesize ECM, become encapsulated osteocytes + spicules are formed
charact of the first step of intramembranous ossification (appearance)
bone blastema or primary ossification center
- mesenchyme cells look like fibroblasts bc they have a stellate apperance with processes going everywhere
- these mesenchyme cells are pluripotential
apperance of bone at the 2nd step of intramembranous ossification
- looks like a bone spicule*
- middle = ECM (bone matrix) with osteocytes (trapped osteoblasts)
- surrounded by cuboidal CT cells (not cuboidal epith):
- all that in environment full of mesenchymal cells
intramembranous ossification step 3: what happens after the initial spicule like bone formed + what is the end result of this step
- formation of secondary ossification centers similar to primary ones (groups of mes cells become osteoblasts)
- osteoblasts start growing perpendicular to the main spicule axis
- end result = trabecular bone bc of the perpendicular growth through all the bone*
what is also happening during the formation of trabecular bone (secondary ossif centers, step 3)
osteoclasts start to appear. multinucleated cells, incorporate in the osteoblasts (cuboidal CT cells) lining the bone matrix
- the bone is deposited and they remove some of it
- result = an addition and removal of bone happens in one specific orientation***
intramembranous ossification step 4: what is happening as/ happens after secondary ossif centers, trabecular bone formation occurs
mesenchymal cells surrounding the trabecular bone differentiate into periosteum
intramembranous ossification step 5: what happens after trabecular bone with periosteum is obtained
- ossification centers (primary and 2ndary) grow radially and fuse
- result = spongy bone called WOVEN BONE (seen in the fetus, collagen fibers disorganized, not lamellar)
intramembranous ossification step 6: what happens after you get woven bone with a periosteum
the periosteum (formed by the most external mesenchymal cells) forms a thin layer of compact bone surrounding the woven bone
architecture of the resulting woven bone in intramembranous ossification (with 2 things to note)
3D structure:
- trabecules of woven (immature bone)
- osteocytes in lacunae (within the bone matrix)
- osteoblasts on trabecules surface
- LOT OF LOOSE CT SURROUNDING THE TRABECULES
- periosteum on periphery surrounding the loose CT (there’s a lot of it) with the trabecules
- BLOOD VESSELS OCCUPY THE WOVEN BONE A LOT
what will the periosteum layer surrounding the woven bone (trabecules + loose CT) do (it came from mesenchymal cells)
will produce compact bone that replaces all woven bone
growth of the skull: direction of bone growth + location of bone formation and bone resorption
growht occurs outwards, expanding the brain
- bone formation on outside surface of the skull
- bone resorption on inside surface of the skull
what happens to the initial trabecules (surrounded by loose CT and a periosteum) formed by intramembranous ossif in the embryo and fetus
- the initial trabecules increase in size*
- apposition of new layers of woven bone (in embryo and fetus)
- some layers may fuse to form a larger plate
- on the plate surface, focal regions of activity appear which result in spicules of bone forming perpendicular to surface of original trabecule
in the growing woven trabecullar bone (skull bone for example), what occupies the spaces between adjacent trabecules or between trabecules and spicules (trabecules = part of surface. spicule = spiking perpendicular to the surface)
blood vessels and loose CT
forces acting on the bone determining which surface of a flat bone gets resorbed and which gets bone formation
- bone receiving pressure on one surface resorbs on that surface (inside surface of the skull, a flat bone, for example. it receives P of brain growing so bone being PUSHED)
- bone being tensed (having tension) on one surface will form bone on that surface (outside surface of the skull, a flat bone, for example. being PULLED)
how to recognize the primary ossification center in a woven trabecullar bone with many trabecules
is the largest trabecule, may appear central with trabecules of expanding woven bone that are less large, growing from it
in the growing woven trabecular bone with many ossif centers growing perpendicularly and making trabecular bone, what happens to periosteum on periphery eventually (formed by mes cells)
it will eventually become 2 layers. inner and outer. (inner is on one side of the bone, side of bone resorption, and outer is on other side, side of bone formation)
what woven trabecular bone with inner and outer periosteum will form in later life
woven bone disappears and replaced by contact lamellar bone
what is the reason for which bone receiving pressure resorbs and for which bone under tension forms bone
- osteoclasts sense the pressure and bone resorbs
- osteoblasts sense tension and add bone
bone transformation that can occur other than woven trabecullar nonlamellar bone becoming secondary bone (compact or spongy)
spongy bone (secondary, trabecullar, cancellous, regular fibers) can become compact bone (secondary, lamellar, regular fibers
endochondral ossification is for formation of what type of bone
short and long bones
initial thing needed for endochondral ossification
you need a piece of hyaline cartilage whose shape ressembles a small version of the bone to be formed (anlagen)
2nd step of endochondral ossification (after have anlagen)
perichondrium on periphery (area of diaphysis) transforms into periosteum and deposits bone, forming a bone collar (ribbon of bone present in the middle of the forming bone shaped structure)
steps of formation of a bone collar (how periosteum of anlagen forms a bone collar and becomes periosteum)
- becomes periosteum bc perichondrium transforms into periosteum
- periosteum has many pluripotential cells
- periosteum differentiates and produces different primary ossification centers and trabecular bone (it is INTRAMEMBRANOUS OSSIFICATION occurring in the periosteum)
next step of endochondral ossification: what is the consequence of the formation of the bone collar
- interferes with nutrition to the cartilage bc there are no blood vessels in hyaline cartilage
- the cartilage degenerates (3 steps): chondrocyte hypertrophy, chondrocyte death, ECM calcification (ECM calcifies everytime a chondrocyte dies)
appearance of forming endochondral bone with dying cartilage
- surface with trabecular bone + bone spicules + osteoblasts
- center with dying cartilage (becomes calcified. the ECM appears basophilic)
next step of endochondral ossification: what happens after ECM calcifies and cartilage dies
- blood vessels invade the calcified cartilage. the invasion is led by OSTEOCLASTS
- they come from the periosteum (the blood vessels and osteoclasts)
- occupy space where chondrocytes died
