6 functions of bone |
1.support 2. Protection 3. Assistance in movement 4.mineral homeostasis 5. Blood cell production only in red bone marrow found in spongy bone 6. Triglyceride storage |
|
Primary mineral salt in bone tissue |
Hydroxyapatite |
|
Calcification or mineralization |
When mineral salts stick to collagen fibers in bone |
|
Content of extracellular matrix of bones |
15% water, 30% collagen fibers, 55% crystallized mineral salts |
|
Where is spongy bone found |
Interior of short flat sesamoid and irregular bones as well as epiphysis of long bones. |
|
6 features of compact bone |
1. Close together, 80% of skeleton 2. Dense 3. Few spaces 4. Found under the periosteum and external layer of all bones and the bulk of the diaphysis 5. Provides protection and supports weight 6. Contains osteon |
|
6 Features of spongy bone |
1. Wide spacing, 20% of all of the skeleton 2. Porous with latticework called trabeculae 3. Interior of short flat sesamoid and irregular bones as well as epiphasis of long bones 4. Light and supports red bobe marrow for hemopoiesis specifically in hips sternum ribs vertebrae proximal end of humerus and femur 5. no osteon 6. Contains growth plate |
|
Perforating volkmans canal (compact bone tissue) |
Canal that runs horizontally that connects with central canal that runs vertically |
|
Central haversian canal (compact bone tissue) |
Contains repeating structural unit called osteon |
|
Concetric lamellae |
One layer of an osteon or central haversian canal |
|
Lacunae (compact bone tissue) |
“Little lake” between concetric lamellae that contains the osteocyte |
|
Canaliculi |
Little channels that connect the “little lakes” or lacunae |
|
Osteon (compact bone) |
Basic structural unit of compact bone |
|
Features of intramembranous ossification |
1. Bone forms directly from mesenchyme 2 happens most commonly in sheetlike layers of bone like in flat bones of the skull or mandible. Less common way of bone formation 3. Differentiates from osteogenic to osteoprogenetor to osteoblasts to create the collagen matrix. 4. Osteoblasts develop into osteocytes that become surrounded by calcified matrix 5. Trabeculae of spongy bone develop 6 periosteum develops and the compact bone in between the periosteum and spongy bone as well to form the bones surface |
|
Steps of Endochondral ossification |
1. Mesenchyme first becomes chondroblasts or cartilage that gets replaced by bone 2. Differentiates from chondroblasts which lay down the cartilaginous matrix to chondrocytes which promote growth in length. 3. Nutrient artery penetrates the middle stimulating osteogenic cells to become osteoblasts and form spongy bone. 4. Osteoclasts break down the lacunae and produce the medullary cavity. 5. Same process happens in the epiphyseal end except the spongy bone remains 6. Epiphyseal plate remains with hyaline cartilage that will be replaced with bone as the bone lengthens |
|
Minerals found in bone |
Calcium phosphorus magnesium and manganese |
|
Vitamins found in bone |
A C D K B12 |
|
Features of the Zone of resting cartilage in the epiphyseal plate |
Nearest the epiphysis Anchors plate to the epiphysis Chondrocytes are resting and do not participate in bone growth |
|
Features of proliferating cartilage in the epiphyseal plate |
Chondrocytes arranged in stacks of coins undergoing mitosis |
|
Features of the zone of hypertrophic or maturing cartilage in the epiphyseal plate |
Contains larger mature chondrocytes in columns Contains cells in various forms of maturation |
|
Features of the zone of calcified cartilage in the epiphyseal plate |
1.Dead chondrocytes surrounded by a calcified matrix 2. Osteoclasts dissolving the matrix 3. Osteoblasts and capillaries move in from the diaphysis to replace cartilage with bone 4. As a result, the diaphyseal border of the plate is firmly cemented to the bone of the diaphysis |
|
Human growth hormone |
Hormone made by the pituitary gland |
|
Insulinlike growth factor |
Produced by bone cells and also by the liver, these chemicals stimulate protein synthesis and growth of bones |
|
Open (compound) fracture |
Broken end of the bone protrudes through skin |
|
Closed or simple fracture |
When the fracture does not break the skin |
|
Comminuted |
Where the bone is splintered or crushed into pieces at the sight of impact |
|
Greenstick |
(Occurs only in children) where the bone is broken on one side and bends on the other |
|
Impacted fracture |
Where one end of the fracture is forcefully driven into the interior of the other end |
|
Pott fracture |
Fracture of the distal end of the lateral leg bone with serious injury of the distal tibial articulation |
|
Colles fracture |
Fracture of the distal end of the radius or forearm in which the distal fragment is displaced posteriorly |
|
Steps of bone repair |
1. Fracture hematoma forms as a result of blood clot. Phagocytes and osteocytes begin to clean the area 2. Fibrocartilaginous callus formation: New blood vessels move in and fibroblasts put down collagen and chondroblasts lay down cartilage to bridge broken bone 3. Bony callus is formed as osteogenic cells become osteoclasts that convert cartilage to spongy bone. Osteoclasts also dissolve any bone fragments 4. Bone remodeling. Callus is remodeled and compact bone replaces spongy bone and osteoclasts restore bone to its original shape. |
|
Bone and calcium homeostasis |
Blood needs to retain 1% calcium. If blood levels are too low, parathyroid hormone is released into the blood which stimulates the breakdown of bone that is absorbed into the blood. If the levels are too high, a hormone called calcitonin will be released into the blood which inhibits osteoclasts and stimulates osteoblasts which build more bone. |
