mechanisms of bone. growth and deveopment Flashcards
what is bone
specialised CT
comprimossed of living cells embedded in mineralised eCM
bone types
trabecualr/cancellous/spongy
cortical/compact/laminar
woven
trabular/cancellous/spongy
inside
porous meshwork of bone
bone strengh determined by travecular microstructure
cortical/compact/laminar
dense
stronge
forms outerlate of bones
woven
forms during periods or repair or rapid growth
remodelled into lamellar bone
what lines the outer surface of cortical bone
periosteium
constituents of bone
30% organic
45% inoranic hydroxyapiite
hydroxyapitite consistant in
- 45% content bone
- 55% cementum
- 70% dentine
- 90% enamel
bone scaffold
- scaffold of interwoven collagen fibres
- Between the fibres are crystals of carbonated hydroxyapatite (small, plate like)
- Small amounts of non- collagenous proteins, some are unique to calcified tissue
eg osteocalciun, osteonectin, bone morphogenic proteins
bone functons
support
metabolic
endocrine
metabolic bone fucntion
haematopoiesis
calcium homeostasis
endocrine bone function
osteocalcin postive regultor of insulin secretion from pancrease
- osteocytes synthesize fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF 23 has a role in phosphate homeostasis)
- Sclerostin, secreted by osteocytes inhibits bone formation
support bone function
supports body and protecs internal organs
allows moveent
periosteium
CT layer surrounding bone
where blood supply enters bone
contains nervous tissue
endosteum
inside layer
caniculi
link osteocytes to each other
