Summary of Endochondral Ossification | Lecture 12 |
Primary Ossification | - Marrow cavity formed - Replaces all cartilage with bone - Located in diaphysis - Occurs before birth |
Secondary Ossification | - No marrow cavity - Some cartilage is left for epiphyseal plates (growth) and articular cartilage - Located in epiphysis - Occurs around the time of birth |
Types of Bone Growth | Interstitial growth and appositional growth |
Interstitial growth | "growth within the tissue" - increases length in long bones occurs by continued endochondral ossification |
Appositional growth | "growth at the edge" - increases thickness occurs in the periosteum of all bones |
Interstitial Growth (Endochondral Ossification) | - Diaphyseal o-clasts break down calcified cartilage - O-blasts lay down spongy bone - Chondroblasts will continue to form cartilage matrix at the proliferating cartilage region - Growth in length stop when the o-clasts/blasts work faster than the c-bl |
Interstitial Growth last step | - Growth in length stop when the o-clasts/blasts work faster than the c-blasts -> epiphyseal plate closes and becomes the epiphyseal line |
Appositional Growth of Bone | - Growth in width - Periosteal osteoblasts build bone on outer surface of bone and endosteal osteoclasts increase the diameter of the marrow cavity - Both bone diameter and cortical width increase - Generates new Osteons |
Appositional Growth generates new Osteon | periosteal side of bone: 1 Ridges in periosteum create groove for periosteal blood vessel 2 Periosteal ridges fuse, forming an endosteum-lined tunnel 3 O-blasts in endosteum build new concentric lamallae, inward toward center of tunnel, forming new ost |
4th step for formation of new osteon in appositional growth | 4. Bone grows outward at osteoblasts in periosteum build new circumferential lamellae. Osteon formation repeats as new periosteal ridges fold over blood vessels |
Fontanels | - Mesenchyme filled spaces between cranial bones - un-ossified mesenchyme - provide flexibility to fetal skull to allow for birth and rapid growth of skull |

The vitamin D pathway | NOTES |
Actions of calcitriol and end result | - Stimulates osteoclast activity (increases bone resorption) - Decreases calcium excretion at the kidney - Increases calcium absorption at the intestine (works well with PTH to stimulate absorption) End Result: increase Blood calcium |
Milk is fortified with vitamin D. GIven the actions of vitamin D, will drinking milk cause bone resorption? | No, because milk is fortified with cholecalciferol (vitamin D precursor). This precursor would only be activated if calcium was low in the blood |
During appositional growth, the activity of periosteal osteoblasts is greater than the activity of endosteal osteoclasts. True or False | True |
Recommended Ca2+ intake per day | - Young adults (19-50) need 1000 mg (1 g) calcium from diet and supplements to avoid bone loss |
If dietary Ca2+ intake is very low, PTH and Calcitriol actions at the intestine will not be effective. What will happen next? | - More calcium will be released from bone because normal blood calcium levels must be maintained - Osteoclasts will be stimulated to maintain blood [Ca2+] |

Pituitary dwarfism | children with low levels of Growth Hormone -> slow epiphyseal growth (short)- slows thickening- forms epiphyseal line long before should |
Pituitary giantism | hyper secretion of Growth Hormone in childhood -> accelerated epiphyseal growth (tall)- abnormally long bones |
Acromegaly | hypersecretion of Growth Hormone after puberty -> appositional growth (thickening of bones) in the skull, hands, feel -> cant lengthen because epiphyseal plates of long bones already closed |
Thyroxine (T4) | - Increases cell metabolism - Stimulates osteoblasts activity -> stimulates bone formation |
Estrogen/Testosterone | - Stimulate osteoblasts activity -> stimulate bone formation - Levels increase at puberty (bone growth/spurts-eventually cause closure of epiphyseal plates becasue o-blast/clast activity greater than chondroblasts activity) -Levels decrease with old age |
Osteoporosis | - Excessive bone loss - Porous bones (reduced bone mass) -> increased risk of fractures - condition of porous bones characterized by decreased bone mass and increased susceptibility to fractures |
What causes reduced bone mass? | - Any factor that stimulates bone resorption or inhibits bone formation (or both) - Osteoclasts activity > Osteoblast activity - Bone Resorption > Bone formation |

Formation of fracture hematoma | - blood vessels crossing the fracture line are broken, as the blood leaks the mass of blood is the fracture hematoma - Phagocytes and osteoclasts begin to remove the dead or damaged tissue in and around the fracture hematoma |
Fibrocartilaginous callus formation | - fibroblasts from the periosteum invade the fracture site and produce collagen fibers - cells from periosteum develop into chondroblasts and begin to produce fibrocartilage in this region |
Fibrocartilaginous callus | mass fo repair tissue consisting of collagen fibers and cartilage that bridges the broken ends of the bone |
Bony callus formation | - Osteogenic cells develop into osteoblasts, which begin to produce spongy bone trabeculae |
Bony callus | fibrocartilage is converted to spongy bone, the the callus is the bony callus |
Bone remodeling as final stage of fracture repair | - dead portions of the original fragments of broken bone are gradually resorbed by osteoclasts - compact bone replaces spongy bone around the periphery of the fracture |

Synovial | joint with a cavity between the bones; diarthrosis |
Synostosis | a bony joint |
Pivot joint | rounded or pointed surface of one bone articulates with a ring formed by another bone and a ligament; allows rotation around its own axis |
Planar joint | articulating bone surfaces are flat or slightly curved; permit gliding movement |
Condyloid joint | convex, oval projection of one bone fits into oval depression of another bone; permits movement in two axes |
Hinge joint | convex surface of one bone articulates with concave surface of another bone; permits flexion and extension |
Ball-and-socket joint | ball-shaped surface articulates with cuplike depression of another bone; permits largest degree of movement in three axes |
Saddle joint | modified condyloid joint where articulating bones resemble a rider sitting in a saddle |
Elevation | upward movement of a body part |
Depressions | downward movement of a body part |
Adduction | movement of bone toward midline |
Gliding | movement in which relatively flat bone surfaces move back-and-forth and side-to-side with respect to one another |
Protraction | movement of a body part anteriorly in the transverse plane |
Flexion | decrease in angle between bones |
Retraction | movement of an anteriorly projected body part back to the anatomical position |
Inversion | movement of the sole medially |
Eversion | movement of the sole laterally |
Abduction | movement of bone away from midline |
dorsiflexion | action that occurs when you stand on your heels |
Plantar flexion | action that occurs when you stand on your toes |
Supination | movement of the forearm to turn the palm posteriorly |
Pronation | movement of the forearm to turn the palm posteriorly |
Opposition | movement of thumb across the palm to touch the tips of the fingers of the same hand |
Extension | increase in angle between bones |
Circumduction | movement of distal end of a part of the body in a circle |
Rotation | bone revolves around its own longitudinal axis |
The head of the radius articulates with: A. the radial notch of the humerus B. the capitulum of the humerus C. the trochlea of the humerus D. the coronoid process of the humerus | B. the capitulum of the humerus |
Wilma got engaged on Valentine's Day and she is now wearing a nice ring on her ring finger. The ring is on her: A. Distal Phalanx of digit IV B. Distal phalanx of digit II C. Proximal phalanx of digit IV D. Proximal phalanx of digit II | C. Proximal phalanx of digit IV |
linea of aspera of the femur | adductors attach to this- legs inward |
The femur articulates with the coxal bone at the acetabulum of the hip bones |
