24
Q

How do chondrocytes respond to the development of the subperiosteal bone collar?

A

Become hypertrophic, secrete collagen X, and VEGF

25
Q

How does the cartilage matrix respond to the development of the subperiosteal bone collar?

A

Calcification, Inhibited nutrient diffusion, and eventual death of hypertrophies chondrocytes. Lacunae merge forming marrow cavity.

26
Q

Osteoclasts act on the bone collar to allow….

A

Periosteal buds (vessels, osteoprogenitors, mesenchymal cells) to enter the cavity. Cartilage in the cavity is now calcified.

27
Q

What is the calcified cartilage-calcified bone complex?

A

Bone matrix (osteoid) calcified on the surface of calcified cartilage.

28
Q

How does calcified cartilage stain?

A

Basophilic

29
Q

How does calcified bone stain?

A

Acidophillic

30
Q

How is the primitive marrow cavity enlarged?

A

Osteoclasts resorb calcified cartilage-calcified bone complex, allowing for eventual bone formation spreading to epiphysis.

31
Q

Where/When do secondary centers of ossification develop?

A

Epiphyses when diaphyseal ossification is well established

32
Q

How do secondary ossification centers develop?

A

Basically the same as primary ossification centers…Osteoprogenitors invade, make matrix, replace certilage

33
Q

When initial bone formation is complete, what two sites can cartilage be found? How does this change at approx. age 20?

A

Initially cartilage at articular surfaces and epiphyseal plates. After bone growth is done, just on articular surfaces.

34
Q

Describe the action occurring in an epiphyseal plate.

A

Addition of new cartilage. Replacement with bone at epiphyseal end.

35
Q

Describe the cells of the Zone of Reserve

A

Small, randomly arranged, inactive chondrocytes

36
Q

Describe the cells of the Zone of Proliferation

A

Rapid mitotic divisions, rows of isogenous cells

37
Q

Describe the cells of the Zone of Cell Hypertrophy and Maturation.

A

Enlarged Chondrocytes

38
Q

Describe the cells of the Zone of Calcification.

A

Cartilage Matricies Calcifies, Dead Chondrocytes

39
Q

Describe the cells of the Zone of Ossification

A

Bone made on calcified cartilage, followed by resorption of the bone/cartilage complex.

40
Q

List the zones of the epiphyseal plate.

A

Reserve, Proliferation, Cell Hypertrophy & Maturation, Calcification, Ossification

41
Q

Epiphysis enlarges by _________ growth and _______ replacement.

A

Cartilage. Bone.

42
Q

Hypertrophic chondrocytes secrete what two substances.

A

Type X Collagen and VEGF

43
Q

Describe the process of post-fracture bone repair.

A

Blood Clotting –> Osteoprogenitor Proliferation –> Callus Formation –> Fibrous Connective Tissue/Cartilage –> Woven Bone/Bony Callus –> Secondary Bone Formation

44
Q

Hairline fractures heal via what type of bone formation?

A

Intramembranous

45
Q

What are synarthroses? Example?

A

Immoveable joints. First rib to sternum, skull bone connections

46
Q

What are amphiarthroses? Example?

A

Slightly Moveable Joints. IV Discs

47
Q

What are diarthroses?

A

Synovial Joints (Maximum Movement).

48
Q

What cell type make the external (fibrous) capsular layer of diarthroses?

A

Dense Connective Tissue

49
Q

What cell type forms the lining of the internal (synovial) capsular layer of diarthroses?

A

Squamous to cuboidal cells on internal surface

50
Q

What are type A cells of the synovial membrane?

A

A – Phagocytic (with well developed Golgi and many lysosomes)

51
Q

What are type B cells of the synovial membrane?

A

B – Probably synovial fluid secretors, well developed rER

52
Q

What is osteopetrosis?

A

Abnormal osteoclast function, leading to mostly woven, not lamellar bone. No marrow cavity development.

53
Q

What is Albers-Schonberg disease?

A

Deficiency in carbonic anhydrase II makes it so not enough H+ can accumulate to activate lysosomal anzymes.

54
Q

What is osteoporosis?

A

Loss of bone mass. May be caused by increase in speed of breakdown or slowdown of formation of bone.

55
Q

Rheumatoid arthritis is the product of what type of reaction?

A

Inflammatory

56
Q

What type of cells are activated in Rheumatoid Arthritis?

A

CD4 T Cells

57
Q

CD4 T Cells produce what to stimulate macrophage activity?

A

IL-15

58
Q

What inflammatory cytokines are involved in rheumatoid arthritis?

A

TNF-alpha, IL-1, IL-6, metalloproteases
