Q

What is remodeling?

A

Starting at age 30, all bone in your body is broken down and rebuilt over the course of 10 years, and the process repeats once completed

Q

What are the steps of intramembranous ossificaiton?

A

Mesenchymal cells collect
Change to osteoprogenitor cells
Change to osteoblasts, which help create the matrix
The matrix hardens, forming trabeculae
Internal space turns into red bone marrow
Mesenchyme outside turns into periosteum

33
Q

Describe endochondral ossification

A

Chondroblasts secrete hyaline cartilage model
chondrocytes become trapped in lacunae and form outer membrane

34
Q

What are the steps of endochondral ossification

A

Mesenchymal cells change into chondrocytes to form the long bone shape and start the periosteum
Chondrocytes divide, secrete more matrix to harden, killing the hyaline cartilage cells, and vessels invade midshaft
Periosteum is developed, osteoprogenitor cells change into osteoblasts and form the bone collar around cartilage matrix, cavity fills with RBM, 2nd ossification center forms in epiphyses as vessels spread- mostly make the spongey bone
Hyaline cartilage remains at the end, divided from the shaft by the growth plate

35
Q

What is remodeling?

A

old, worn out, injured bone replaced with new tissue
allows bone to store Ca

36
Q

What happens to the bone diameter after remodeling?

A

increases bone diameter

37
Q

What are the requirements for remodeling?

A

Sufficient Ca & P in diet
Vit D, C, & A
HGH
Estrogen/Test
Calcitonin
PTH

38
Q

What is Vit D’s role in remodeling?

A

needed for Ca absorption

39
Q

What conditions may arise if Vit D deficient?

A

rickets and osteomalacia (weak bones)

40
Q

What is Vit C role in remodeling

A

maintain bone matrix

41
Q

What is Vit A role in remodeling

A

regulates cell function

42
Q

What is Human Growth Hormone’s role in remodeling?

A

(HGH)
helps generate bone growth

43
Q

What is Estrogen and Testosterone’s role in remodeling?

A

Helps osteoblasts make matrix and remove cartilage

44
Q

What is calcitonin’s role in remodeling?

A

Positive feedback loop!
decreases Ca levels in blood to inhibit osteoclast f(x) if not much broken bone

45
Q

What is PTH’s role in remodeling?

A

(Parathyroid hormone)
Negative feedback loop
increases osteoclast activity by slowing Ca absorption in urine & stimulate kidney release of calcitriol

46
Q

What does calcitriol do?

A

converts Vit D absorbed by skin into active form

47
Q

What happens to repair a broken bone?

A

cartilagenous patch forms in break, causing cells in area to die
w/in 24 hours, endosteal stem cells differentiate into chondrocytes & secrete matrix
Matrix from both ends come together
Fixed within weeks

48
Q

What effects bone remodeling and bone strength?

A

more exercise and gravity increases bone mass via matrix production
aging decreases d/t demineralization as sex hormone levels decrease

49
Q

Osteoporosis

A

mostly effects spongey bone
remodeling doesn’t keep up with breakdown

50
Q

What factors impact osteoporosis?

A

age
lots of pregnancy and breast feeding
poor nutrition
2nd to alcoholism, cushings, hyperthyroid, hyperparathyroidism,

51
Q

Symptoms of osteoporosis

A

loss in height via kyphosis or lordosis

52
Q

Kyphosis

A

T12 body broken, incomplete, absent or flattening
(humpback)

53
Q

Lordosis

A

Anterior curvature greater than 50 degrees
(swayback)

54
Q
