Miller's Biology Flashcards
(124 cards)
high strain cells in healing
fibroblasts -> fibrous union
cells that respond to medium strain, low oxygen in bone healing
chondroblasts -> cartilage
cells that respond to low strain, high oxygen in bone healing
osteocyte/osteoblast -> bone healing/formation
What secretes sclerostin?
Function of sclerostin?
Osteocytes
inhibits osteoblasts via Wnt pathway
PTH effect on sclerostin
increases
Calcitonin effect on sclerostin
decreases
Osteoclast cell of origin
macrophage lineage
molecules involved in osteoclast attachment to bone
integrins to vibronectin (RGD sequence)
major proteolytic enzyme in bone resorption
cathepsin K
mutation in Cathespine K causes
Pyknodysostosis
Cath’rine Pyknod the wrong profession so we stole her distal phalanges (represents distal phalanx osteolysis)
mutation in carbonic anhydrase causes
osteopetrosis
what does calcitonin act on
what is effect
acts on receptor on osteoclast to decrease its activity
secreted by tumor cells to cause osteolysis
IL 1
PTHrP
tensile strength to bone
collage
gives compressive strength to bone
proteoglycans
single most important factor determining bone healing
blood supply
cartilaginous extracellular matrix is degraded in fracture healing by
MMP13
increases mechanical strenth of callus and produces nano motion
LIPUS
how is cancellous graft incoroporated
creeping substitution
cell of origin for calcitonin
clear cells of thyroid
physis zone of rickets
zone of provisional calcification
PHEX gene mutation
X linked familial hypophosphatemic rickets
cannot absorb phosphate
rickets and patient is totally bald
Vit D dependent rickets
medications that disrupt bone mineralization
prednisone PPIs seizure meds SSRIs heparin
