Q

Structure of bone

A

• Compact = (cortical) surrounds spongy (trabecular, cancellous) bone, provides strength, and is greatest near middle of shaft of long bones
• Spongy = consists of spicules of bone which enclose cavities containing blood-forming cells (marrow)
• Periosteum = on the outside of bone is a dense fibrous layer
-muscles insert
-contains bone forming cells.
-not found in the regions covered by articular cartilage

Q

Steps of Endochondral ossification

A
  1. Fetal hyaline cartilage model develops
  2. Cartilage calcifies and periosteal bone collar forms around diaphysis
  3. Primary ossification centre forms in the diaphysis
  4. Secondary ossification centres form in epiphysis
  5. Bone replaces cartilage, except articular cartiliage and epiphyseal plates
    G. Epiphyseal plates ossify and form epiphyseal lines

32
Q

Fibrous joints _ examples

A
  • Sutures of cranium: on completion of growth, many sutures obliterated (synostoses) = no movement
    • Syndesmosis: sheet of fibrous tissue (ligament or membrane) allow some movement eg interosseous membrane in forearm (radius and ulna) (tibia and fibula)
    • Dento-alveolar syndesmosis (gomphosis): a peg-and-socket junction between tooth and socket; maintained by collagen
33
Q

Cartilaginous joints

A

–> bones united by cartilage

• Great stability of joint = limited range of movement

34
Q

Cartilaginous joints - example

A
  • Primary cartilaginous joints (synchondroses): bones united by hyaline cartilage, eg epiphyseal growth plates of the long bones
    • Secondary cartilaginous joints (symphyses) : bones covered with hyaline cartilage with a pad of fibrocartilage between them (pubic symphesis)
35
Q

Synovial joints

A

—> Connections between skeletal components where the elements are separated by a narrow articular cavity
• Various factors confer stability (Intrinisic/extrinsic ligaments, configuration of bone and support from the soft tissues) = freely moving joints

36
Q

Synovial joints - features

A
  1. joint capsule – inner synovial membrane, outer fibrous membrane
  2. articular cartilage (hyaline) covering articular surfaces
  3. synovial fluid in joint cavity – a potential space that contains synovial fluid (secreted by synovial membrane) - about 0.5–4 ml within large joints e.g. knee
37
Q

Synovial joint classifications

A 
Ball and socket
Hinge
Pivot
Plane
Condylar
Bicondylar
38
Q

Innervation of joints

A

Inervation —> rich nerve supply - pain fibres in fibrous part of capsule and accessory ligaments
• also contribute to proprioception (awareness of movement and position

39
Q

Hilton’s law

A

Nerves supplying a joint also supply muscles moving the joint and the skin overlying the muscle

40
Q

Blood supply to joint

A

Articular arteries
- arise from vessels around joint and supply joint

They anastomose to form Peri articular aterial plexus

The Peri articular aterial plexus branches and these branches pierce fibrous capsules to form
Sub synovial vascular plexus

41
Q

What are myocytes

A

Muscle cells

42
Q

3 types of muscle

A
  • Skeletal
    • Cardiac
    • Smooth
43
Q

Skeletal muscle function

A

• locomotion
• static support – standing/ posture, stabilise joints
• provide heat – about 80% of chemical energy is lost as heat
– shivering involves involuntary activity of skeletal muscle to raise core temperature

44
Q

Skeletal muscle structure

A
  • Fibres – large and long cylindrical unbranched multinucleate cells
    • cytoplasm of each fibre (sarcoplasm) surrounded by a plasma membrane (sarcolemma)
    • bulk of sarcoplasm comprises contractile machinery: myofibrils 1–2 µm in diameter, extend the length of the fibre
    • oval nuclei (numerous) usually peripherally located - between the myofibrils and the sarcolemma
45
Q

3 Skeletal muscle connective tissue

A

Epi pe en

  • epimysium = surround muscle
  • perimysium = surrounds bundles of muscle fibres
  • Endomysium = surround muscle fibres
46
Q

First class levers

A

• Load and force are on opposite sidesof fulcrum (like a seesaw).

47
Q

First class levers - examples

A

– Eg muscles in posterior region of neck attached to the skull acting on the joint
– Fulcrum (pivot) is fairly central at the base of the skull

48
Q

Second class levers

A

• Load and force are on same side of fulcrum, with load between the force and the fulcrum (like a wheelbarrow).

49
Q

Second class levers - excemples

A

– Eg. gastrocnemius muscle exerts force on calcaneus and flexes foot

50
Q

Third class levers

A

Load and force are on same side of fulcrum, with force applied between the load and the fulcrum (like a forceps or fishing rod)

51
Q

Third class levers - excumples

A

– Eg biceps flexes elbow joint (fulcrum)

52
Q

Long lever arm

A

• If lever arm is long, then then muscle contraction will move joint through small angle → lever system is suited to small and/or slow movements/ more forceful movements

53
Q

Short lever airm

A

• If lever arm is short, then muscle contraction will move joint through a large angle => lever system is suited to large and/or rapid movements / less forceful movements

54
Q

Agonist muscle

A

prime mover; main muscle responsible for specific movement
– sometimes 2 prime movers working equally [can also be gravity]

Eg. Biceps brachii

55
Q

Antagonist muscle

A

oppose prime movers

Eg triceps brachii

56
Q

Synergist

A

complements action of prime mover, for example resist sideways motion to maintain the force in one direction

e.g. g for biceps brachii → brachioradialis, brachialis

57
Q

Fixator

A

steadies proximal part of limb (isometric contraction) while movements occurring in distal parts

e.g. for biceps curl → shoulder rotator cuff

58
Q

2 types of phasic muscle contraction

A
  • isotonic contraction (tone same, but muscle length changes)
  • isometric contraction (length same but tension increases)
59
Q

Isotonic contraction

A

– concentric contraction – muscles shorten

– eccentric contraction– muscles length

60
Q

Fascial compartment

A

• As muscles contract, blood is pushed out of veins in the compartment
• Valves in veins allow blood to flow only towards heart
→ deep fascia, muscles and valves work together as a musculovenous pump to return blood to heart

61
Q

Compartment syndrome

A

Increase in pressure in compartment

62
Q

5 other examples of connective tissue

A

Retinaculum

Bursae

Synovial tendon sheaths

Tendons

Ligaments

63
Q

Retinaculum

A

-Fascia coming round
• thickening of deep fascia to hold tendons in place where they cross the joint
• prevent “bow stringing” of tendons
• Looks like a bowstring being pulled away from the bow (string = tendon, bow = bone)

64
Q

Bursae

A

-closed sacs of serous membranes (secrete fluid)
• usually at locations subject to friction – allow one structure to move over another
• Allows sliding e.g. patella

65
Q

Synovial tendon sheaths

A

• bursae wrap around tendons eg under retinaculum or in specialised osseofibrous tunnels (that anchor tendons in place)

66
Q

Tendon

A

• Tendons transfer forces developed by skeletal muscles to bone
• Composed of dense, regular connective tissue – 60% dry weight = large collagen type Ifibres – also collagen II and V, elastin, glycoproteins and proteoglycans
• Tendons are slightly elastic (can be stretched by 15% of their length)
Cellularity (and metabolic rate) of adult tendons is very low → increases during infection or injury
– repair involves proliferation of fibroblasts followed by deposition of new collagen fibres
-sparse vascular supply
• Specialised golgi tendon organs – importnant in protecting from injury

67
Q

Liguments

A
  • Ligaments prevent excessive separation of adjacent bones

* Microstructure and biology of ligaments is broadly similar to tendons; mostly large crimped fibres of collagen type I

68
Q

Tendons vs ligament

A

• Two major differences between tendons and ligaments:

– structure: ligaments tend to have fibres orientated in a range of directions
– composition: e.g., ligamentum flavum has very high elastin content, enables it to be stretched more than 80% when the spine is flexed, and yet remain under tension in extension

69
Q

3 main cells in bone formation

A
  • chondrocytes (cartilage cells – produces mineralised matrix)
    • osteoblasts (bone-forming cells)
    • osteoclasts (bone-resorbing cells)

→ also osteocytes

70
Q

What is endochondral bone formation

A
  • cartilaginous template precedes ossification
  • complex process that involves three main cell types:
    • chondrocytes (cartilage cells – produces mineralised matrix)
    • osteoblasts (bone-forming cells)
    • osteoclasts (bone-resorbing cells)
71
Q

What structures use endochondral bone formation

A
  • all axial (vertebral column, sternum, and ribs)
  • appendicular (limb) bones of the body, with exception of part of clavicle
  • cranial base and pharyngeal arch cartilages also
72
Q

What is membranous bone formation

A
  • osteoblast progenitors differentiate directly from condensed mesenchyme
    • eventually differentiate into osteoid producing mature osteoblasts
    • Osteoblasts that get entrapped into the compact bone, reside in lacuna and differentiate into osteocytes
73
Q

What structures use membranous bone formation

A

• Most bones of the face and cranial vault

74
Q

Myotome

A

• Hypomeres form hypaxial muscles of lateral and ventral body wall (innervated by ventral ramus of spinal nerve) including:

  • 3 layers of intercostal muscles in thorax
  • anterolateral abdominal wall
  • cervical region, contribute to strap muscles of neck
  • lumbar region, form quadratus lumborum muscles
75
Q

Epimeres give rise to

A

deep epaxial muscles of back (innervated by dorsal ramus of spinal nerve) including:
– erector spinae

76
Q

Formation of vertebrae

A

—> formed by resegmnetation of sclerotome
• each sclerotome splits into a cranial and caudal segment
• the spinal nerves grow toward the myotomes
• the caudal segment of each sclerotome recombines /fuses with cranial segment of sclerotome caudal to it
• each of the two segments of the sclerotome contributing to a vertebra

77
Q

Limb development

A
  • starts with proliferation of somatic lateral plate mesoderm in limb regions of lateral body wall
  • upper limb bud appears in lower cervical region day 24 (earlier)
  • lower limb bud appears in lower lumbar region at 28 days
  • Ectoderm along distal tip of bud forms a ridge- like thickening, apical ectodermal ridge (AER, arrow in C, day 32); divides into dorsal/ventral aspects
78
Q

Limb rotation

A
  • Upper extremity rotates 90 degrees laterally (ventral, flexor compartment faces anteriorly)
    • Lower extremity rotates 90 degrees medially so that embryonic ventral, flexor compartment is posterior and extensors are in front
    • Rotation via a torsion in femoral and humeral shafts
