What are the 4 regions of long bones?
1. Diaphysis
2. Epiphysis
3. Epiphyseal plate/disc (growth plate)
4. Metaphysis
Which end is the articular end of the bone?
Epiphysis
Which region of the bone is the transitional area between diaphysis & epiphyseal plate?
Metaphysis
The shaft of the bone is also known as?
Diaphysis
Growth region between diaphysis & epiphysis is known as?
Epiphyseal plate
Organic component of bone is what percentage?
35%
What accounts for 80-90% organic component of bone matrix?
Type I collagen
Which glycosaminoglycans are present in organic matrix of bone?
CHondroiton sulfate & keratan sulfate
Which glycoproteins are present in organic matrix of bone?
1. Osteocalcin
2. Osteonectin
3. Osteopontin
4. Bone sialoprotein
Osteogenic (osteoprogenitor) cells are found where?
Deepest layer of periosteum & endosteum
Osteoprogenitor cells are derived from which embryonic tissue?
Mesenchyme
On what surfaces of bone are osteoblasts found?
Periosteal & endosteal surfaces
Osteoblasts communicate by?
Gap junctions
Osteoblasts contain large amounts of rough ER & have a large golgi apparatus why?
Primary role of osteoblasts = secrete bone matrix
When does an osteoblast become an osteocyte?
Once the osteoblast surrounds itself w/ matrix it becomes an osteocyte
What is the main role of osteocytes?
Maintain bone matrix & mechanotransduction
Which type of bone cell are large multinucleated cells?
Osteoclasts
How are osteoclasts attached to bone?
Osteoclasts attach to bone by sealing zone "Clear zone"
Rank receptor is located on which cells?
Osteoclast precursor cells
What must take place in order for osteoclast precursor cell to differentiate into active osteoclast?
Rank receptor must bind Rank ligand
What are the types of bone?
1. Compact bone
2. Spongy bone
Which type of bone is laid down in haversian systems (osteons)?
Compact bone
What are osteons (haversian systems)
Series of concentric lamellae w/ a canal containing blood vessels & nerves in center
What are the 3 types of lamellae?
1. Haversian (concentric)- form osteon
2. Interstitial- between osteons
3. Circumferential- arounds outside & inside of bone
Bone is laid down from outside to in or inside out?
Bone build from outside to inside
What is the connective tissue covering of bone called?
Periosteum
-Fibrous layer
-Osteogenic layer
What is the inner surface of bone lining the marrow cavity called?
Endosteum
What is found in the endosteum?
Active osteoblasts & osteoclasts
How do trabeculae strengthen bone?
Diffuse stresses on bone
The periosteum of the skull is called?
Pericranium
Bones of skull have 2 external bony tables separated by spongy bone called?
Diploic bone
Which type of marrow consists of developing blood cells, contains reticular cells & fibers and has abudant sinusoids?
Red marrow
Which type of marrow has adipose tissue found within medullary cavtiy?
Yellow marrow
What are sharpey's fibers?
Collagen fibers from periosteum or from tendons/ligaments that become embedded in bone matrix
Which vitamins are essential to healthy bone?
1. Vit C- collagen
2. Bit D
Calcitonin is secreted by?
Thyroid gland
Which hormone inhibits osteoclast activity & promotes urinary excretion of calcium & phosphate?
Calcitonin
Which hormone stimulates bone resorption & elevates blood calcium levels?
PTH
How does intramembranous bone formation occur?
-Osteoblats produce small bony spicules
-Bony spicules fuse to form larger bone tissue
-Bone is then remodeled by osteoclasts & osteoblasts
Where does periosteal bony collar form in Endochondral bone formation?
Diaphysis
When does the marrow cavity begin to form in endochondral bone formation?
Once cartilage is calcified in diaphysis -- blood vessels & CT invade & marrow cavity begins forming
Where do secondary centers of ossificiation form in endochondral bone formation?
Epiphyses
A layer of hyaline cartilage remains where during endochondral bone formation?
Between epiphysis & diaphysis-- forms epiphyseal disc
What are the 5 zones of cartilage forming the epiphyseal disc?
1. Quiescent or reserve zone
2. Proliferative zone
3. Zone of maturation or hypertorphy
4. Zone of calcification
5. Zone of ossificiation
In which zone of epiphyseal disc are chondrocytes not actively dividing or producing matrix?
Quiescent or reserve zone
In which zone of epiphyseal disc are cells undering mitoses & line up in colums?
Proliferative zone
In which zone do cells become very large & full of glycogen-- matrix is compressed into narrow bands between columns of cells?
Zone of maturation or hypertrophy
In which zone do cells die & cartilage matrix becomes calcified?
Zone of calcification
In which zone is bone laid down on spicules of calcified cartilage & bone is then remodeled?
Zone of ossification
What happens when bone is done growing in length?
Epiphyseal disc becomes ossified --> no further growth possible
What is the function of periosteal osteoblasts when bone grows in diameter?
Periosteal osteoblasts lay new bone appositionally --> increasing bone diameter
What is the function of endosteal osteaoblasts in bone growth in diameter?
Endosteal osteoclasts resorb bone --> Increase size of marrow cavity
What are secondary ossification centers?
After initial bone formation by endochondral ossification --> other parts of cartilage model begin to ossifiy
Which type of bone has abundant osteocytes & irregularly arranged collagen fibers?
Primary (immature, woven) bone
Which type of bone is lamellar, osteocytes less abundunt & more evening spaced & collagen fibers parallel w/ in lamella?
Secondary (mature) bone
