• Bone is made up of several different tissues working together:
|
bone, cartilage, dense connective tissue, epithelium, various blood forming tissues, adipose tissue, and nervous tissue.
|
|
• Each individual bone is an
|
organ
|
|
Functions of Bone
|
• Supporting & protecting soft tissues
• Attachment site for muscles making movement possible • Storage of minerals and calcium & phosphate -- mineral homeostasis • Blood cell production occurs in red bone marrow (hematopoiesis) • Energy storage in yellow bone marrow |
|
shaft
|
diaphyses
|
|
one end of a long bone
|
epiphyses
|
|
the areas between the epiphysis and diaphysis and include the epiphyseal plate in growing bones
|
metaphyses
|
|
• Articular cartilage over joint surfaces acts as
|
friction reducer and shock absorber
|
|
tough membrane covering bone but not the cartilage
|
periosteum
|
|
type of connective tissue as seen by widely spaced cells separated by matrix
|
bone
|
|
consists of widely separated cells surrounded by large amounts of matrix.
|
bone tissue
|
|
contains inorganic salts, primarily hydroxyapatite and some calcium carbonate, and collagen fibers.
|
the matrix of bone
|
|
occurs only in the presence of collagen fibers
|
calcification
|
|
bone-building cells
|
osteoblasts
|
|
mature bone cells and the principal cells of bone tissue
|
osteocytes
|
|
derived from monocytes and serve to break down bone tissue
|
osteoclasts
|
|
undergo cell division and develop into osteoblasts
|
osteogenic cells
|
|
form matrix & collagen fibers but can’t divide
|
osteoblasts
|
|
huge cells from fused monocytes (WBC)
|
osteoclasts
|
|
– can divide to replace themselves & can become osteoblasts
|
• Osteoprogenitor cells
|
|
– found in inner layer of periosteum and endosteum
|
• Osteoprogenitor cells
|
|
arranged in units called osteons or Haversian systems
|
compact bone
|
|
contain blood vessels, lymphatic vessels, nerves, and osteocytes along with the calcified matrix.
|
osteons
|
|
are aligned in the same direction along lines of stress. These lines can slowly change as the stresses on the bone changes
|
osteons
|
|
• Makes up shaft of long bones and the external layer of all bones
|
compact bone
|
|
• Resists stresses produced by weight and movement
|
compact bone
|
|
concentric rings (lamellae) of calcified matrix surrounding a vertically oriented blood vessel
|
osteon
|
|
found in spaces called lacunae
|
osteocytes
|
|
communicate through canaliculi filled with extracellular fluid that connect one cell to the next cell
|
osteocytes
|
|
does not contain osteons. It consists of trabeculae surrounding many red marrow filled spaces.
|
spongy (cancellous) bone
|
|
• It forms most of the structure of short, flat, and irregular bones, and the epiphyses of long bones.
|
spongy (cancellous) bone
|
|
is light and supports and protects the red bone marrow.
|
spongy (cancellous) bone
|
|
• All embryonic connective tissue begins as
|
mesenchyme
|
|
is the formation of bone directly from or within fibrous connective tissue membranes.
|
– Intramembranous ossification
|
|
is the formation of bone from hyaline cartilage models.
Intramembranous |
– Endochondrial ossification
|
|
forms the flat bones of the skull and the mandible
|
• Intramembranous ossification
|
|
forms from mesenchymal cells as they convert to osteoblasts and lay down osteoid matrix
|
an ossification center
|
|
surrounds the cell and then calcifies as the osteoblast becomes an osteocyte.
|
the matrix
|
|
join to form bridges of trabeculae that constitute spongy bone with red marrow between
|
– The calcifying matrix centers
|
|
involves replacement of cartilage by bone and forms most of the bones of the body.
|
• Endochondral ossification
|
|
• The first step in endochondrial ossification is
|
the development of the cartilage model
|
|
– perichondrium lays down periosteal bone collar
|
• Development of Primary Ossification Center
|
|
– nutrient artery penetrates center of cartilage model
|
• Development of Primary Ossification Center
|
|
– osteoblasts and osteoclasts migrate to center of cartilage model
– osteoblasts deposit bone matrix over calcified cartilage forming spongy bone trabeculae |
• Development of Primary Ossification Center
|
|
– osteoclasts form medullary cavity
|
• Development of Primary Ossification Center
|
|
– in length by chondrocyte cell division and matrix formation (interstitial growth)
– in width by formation of new matrix on the periphery by new chondroblasts from the perichondrium (appositional growth) – cells in midregion burst and change pH triggering calcification & chondrocyte death |
growth of cartilage model
|
|
– blood vessels enter the epiphyses around time of birth
– spongy bone is formed but no medullary cavity |
Development of secondary Ossification Center
|
|
– cartilage cells are produced by mitosis on epiphyseal side of plate
– cartilage cells are destroyed and replaced by bone on diaphyseal side of plate |
• Epiphyseal plate or cartilage growth plate
|
|
• Bone can grow in thickness or diameter only by
|
appositional growth
|
|
• Skeleton is a reservoir of
|
calcium and phosphate
|
|
are involved with..nerve & muscle cell function
– blood clotting – enzyme function in many biochemical reactions |
calcium ions
|
