Microscopic bone anatomy: bone cells Bone cells; osteoblasts; osteocyte; osteoclasts; osteon; central canal; perforating canals
Microscopic bone anatomy: Osteoblasts function bone deposition; immature bone cells; bone building
Known as the constructin crew Osteoblasts
Microscopic bone anatomy: Osteocyte In lacunae
Function of osteocytes removes wastes; transports nutrients; mature osteoblasts
Known as the maintenance crew Osteocytes
Microscopic bone anatomy: osteoclasts bone and fiber reabsorption: from fused monocytes
Osteoclast The destruction crew
Bone destruction causes release of calcium and phosphoate in blood osteoclasts
Microscopic bone anatomy: osteon Concentric deposit of inorganic salts, collagen, elastin and osteocytes.
Microscopic bone anatomy: central canal parallel to bone axis; contains vessels and nerves
Microscopic bone anatomy: perforating canals Perpendicular to bone axis; contains vessels, nerves
Osteoblasts mature into what? Into an osteocytes
Bone development Intramembranous bones; Ossification
How do intramembranous bones originate Originate in sheet like layers of connective tissue.
e.g. flat bones such as skull and clavicles Intramembranous bones
Step 1 intramembranous ossification sheet like layers of relatively undifferentiated connective tissue appear at sites of future bones
Step 2 intramembranous ossification Prtially differentiated connective tissue cells collect around blood vessels in these layers
Step 3 intramembranous ossification Connective tissue cells further differentiate into osteoblasts, which deposit spongy bone
Step 4 intramembranous ossification Osteoblasts become osteocytes when bony matrix completly surrounds them.
Step 5 intramembranous ossification Connective tissue on the surface of each developing structure forms a periosteum.
Step 6 Intramembranous ossification Osteoblasts on the inside of the periosteum deposit compact bone over the spongy bone.
Intramembranous bones start with sheet like layers of undifferentiated conn tissue at sites of future bones
Sheet like layers originate in future bone step 1
Blood vessels collect around sheet like layers step 2
Tissues turning into osteoblasts & deposit in spongy bone step 3
Osteoblasts turn into Osteocytes when surrounded by bony matrix step 4
Periosteum forms from connective tissue on surface step 5
Compact bone developed via Osteoblasts inside the periosteum deposit compact bone over spongy bone step 6
Periosteum gives rise to osteoblasts- what happens first and then second? Spongy bone formed first and then compact bone
Endochondrial bones from ossification of hyaline cartilage bone models
Which process are most bones produced? endochondrial bones
endo in
chond cartilage
Long bones are formed endochondral bones
there are no gaps in this part of the long bone compact bone is composed of osteons.
There are gaps in this part of the bone spongy bone is composed of trabeculae
Where does ossification start in endochondral bones This begins in diaphysis and moves to epiphysis
Where does secondary ossification move towards? Secondary ossification moves does toward diaphysis
step 1: massess of hyaline cartilage form what? Models of furture bones
Step 2: Cartilage breaks down and what develops? periosteum
Step 3: Blood vessels & differentiating osteoblasts from what? the periosteum, and they invade the disintegrating tissue.
Step 4: Osteoblasts form what and what space does this new formed tissue occupy spongy bone is formed in the space occupied by cartilage.
Step 5: Osteoblasts beneath the periosteum do what? deposit thin layers of compact bone
Step 6: Osteoblasts become what? Become osteocytes when completely surrounded by bony matrix
What happens to epiphyseal plate? will eventually ossify and called epiphyseal line.
What is epiphyseal plate made of? cartilage
growth plate = epiphyseal plate
what happens if fracture of epiphyseal plate? If fractured, growth plat forms assymetrically.
assymetrical no balance,
Bone cancers affect Osteoclasts therefore bone loss; osteoclasts release ca & phosphates; overproduction of osteoclasts can lead to too much.
Prostate cance can stimulate osteoblasts therefore bone production; overproduction leads to too much growth.
Factors affect bone growth Vit D, A, & C
Vit D Required for calcium absorption in small intestine & helps with bone building
Vit A required for osteoblast and osteoclast activity during fetal development
Vit C req for collagen formation in bones.
Low Vit D = bone softening or rickets or ostomalacia
rickets bone softening in children
Osteomalacia bone softening in adults.
Factor affecting bone growth UV exposure
How does UV exposure affect Vit D absorption Vit D synthesized from substrate in presense of UV ; via skin and digestive tract
Digestive tract Is better for absorbing Vit D....
Factors that affect bone growth: mechanical stress Stimulates osteoblasts
Osteoblasts decreases and osteoclasts increases Result of mechanical stress
Factors that affect bone growth: hormones Secreted by the pituatary, thyroid, parathyroid, ovaries and testes.
Pituatary stimulates Growth hormone
Thyroid stimulates replacement of cartilage in the epiphyseal plates of long bones
Stimulates osteoblast activities Thyroid stimulates
Parathyroid stimulates Increase number & activity of osteoclasts which break down bone.
Ovaries and testes stimulates testosterone and estrogen promotes bone formation; stimulates ossification of epiphyseal plate
Hormonal Osteopathology pituatary dwarfism; pituatary gigantism;acromegaly
pituatary dwarfism decreased levels of human growth hormone
HGH stimulates cartilage cells- which eventually turn into bone.
normal body proportions but dwarfed Pituatary dwarfism
Pituatary gigantism Increase levels of human growth hormone (therefore increase mitosis in cartilage) results in stature up to 8 feet.
Increase mitosis and pituatary gigantism that leads to death rapids growth leads to losing telomeres resulting slow down mitosis leading to early death.
Acromegaly increase levels of human growth hormone results in enlarged hands, feet, jaw, ears.
Cause of acromegaly pituatary tumor
treatment for pituatary dwarfism administer HGH could lead to up to inces of growth..has to be adminstered at right time.
Timing of administrating HGH to stimulate growth is based on what the stage of epiphyseal plate...
Osteopathology/osteotrauma Chondrodysplasia; osteogenesis imperfecta; factures
chondrodysplasia irregular collagen fibers leads to stunted growth and deformed joints
Osteogenesis imperfecta Too few collagen fibers; easily broken bones
To give rise to imperfect bones Osteogenesis imperfecta
Insufficient collagen fibers = Brittle bones; osteogenesis imperfecta
fractures Any cracklying or breaking of bones
Traumatic fracture via injury
pathological fractures via disease
fracture origins traumatic and pathological
Fracture extent closed; compound; complete, incomplete
Closed fracture skin not broken via bone movement
compound fracture skin broken via bone movement exposing fracture
Open fracture = compound fracture
Complete fracture bone broken in 2 or more pieces
incomplete fracture bone not broken into 2 pieces
communited fracture complete fracture; broken into 3 or more pieces; common in old and brittle bones
Compression fracture Crushed bone; common in porous bones (i.e. osteoporosis); at risk for extreme caution as in a fall.
Spiral Twisting of bone; common sports fracture
Epiphyseal break Epiphysis seperates from diaphysis along epi plate
greenstick fracture Incomplete fracture; break occurs on convex surface of the bend in the bone.
Fissured fractures incomplete fracture; longitudinal break
Transverse fracture complete; break occurs at right angle to axis of bone
Oblique fracture complete;occurs at an angle other than right angle of the axis of bone
Depressed fracture broken bone portion is pressed inward; typical skill fracture
green stick fractures are common in children because there bones are more organix matrix and more flexible that those of adults
four major steps in bone repair 1. hematoma formation, 2. fibrocartilage callus formation; 3. bony callus formation; 4. bone remodeling
Stage 1: hematomoa formation bone repair; blood escapes severed blood vessels forming a hematoma
stage 2: fibrocartilaginous callus formation spongy bones form close to developing blood vessels, fibrocartilage forms
Stage 3; bony callus formation This replaces fibrocartilage
Stage: Bone remodeling Stage 4: osteoclasts remove excess bony tissue- new bone is restored.
Low calcium level stimulates parathyroid which stimulates parathyroid hormone which stimulates osteoclasts that break down bone to release calcium into blood
High Calcium level stimulates thyroid gland to release calcitonin, then stimulates osteoblasts which deposit calcium into bones
Osteoporosis trabeculae are lost and compact bone develops open spaces
In osteoporosis, trabeculae are lost & compact bone develops open spaces causes inactivty of osteoblasts (which builds bones) and continued activity of osteoclasts (which break down bone)
List risk factors for osteoporosis female, postmenopausal, light complexion, alcohol, smoking, genes, anorexia and lack of exercise in adolesence.
Approx 25% of gender diagnosed with osteoporosis American Men
Extra calcium in blood means what? There is less calcium in the bone- extra calcium in blood serum activates ostoblasts
deficient calcium in blood serum activates? Osteoclasts, which break down bone and release Ca into the blood.
