what is bone remodelling
coordinated osteoclastic resorption and osteoblastic proliferation
annual rate of cortical bone turnover
4%
annual rate of trabecular bone turnover
25%
direction of bone growth
endochondral ossification
longtitudinal
direction of bone growth
subperiosteal apposition
width
rate of bone remodelling depends on 3
-growth
-hormones and biochemical factors
-mechanical stress
organic portion of bone comprised of
type 1 collagen
proteoglycans
osteocalcin
cytokines/interleukins
woven bone
-collagen fibres and cells - no specific arrangement
-temporary
-froms on fibrous tissue
-immature
-healing
lamellar bone
-mature bone
-parallel collagen fibres
-osteocytes organised
-laid on existing bone surface
two forms of lamellar bone
cortical
cancellous
puberty to age 30 bone mass
increases
after 35-40 bone mass
loss by about 0.3 -0.5% per year
post menopause bone loss
2-3% per year for next 8-10 yrs
slows to 0.5% after age 60
5 determinant of loss of bone mass
-calcium and phosphates
-PTH
-Vit D3
-oestrogen and other sex hormones
-calcitonin
factors affecting bone turnover
insulin-like growth factor
increased osteoblast proliferation
factors affecting bone turnover
TGF
transforming growth factor
increased osteoblast activity
factors affecting bone turnover
IL-1/osteoclast activating factor
increases osteoclast activity
factors affecting bone turnover
prostaglandins
-increased bone turnover
BMP
bone morphgenetic proteins
bone formation
metabolic bone disorders 2
-abnormalities of formation
-metabolism of bone
metabolic bone disorder pathology 5
loss of mineralisation
low bone mass
high bone mass
high bone turnover
low bone turnover
loss of mineralisation eg
osteomalacia/rickets
low bone mass eg
osteoporosis, osteogenesis imperfecta
highbone mass eg
osteopetrosis
high bone turnover
pagets,
hyperparathyroidism,
thyrotoxicosis
low bone turnover
adynamic disease
hypophosphatasia
assessment for metabolic bone disorder
history
exam
xrays
DEXA
biochemistry
bone biopsy (rare)
metabolic bone disorder biochemical tests 7
serum calcium
serum phosphate
PTH
vit D (measured by 25 HCC)
specific endocrine test
markers of bone turnover
FGF-23
paget's disease features 6
rapid bone turnover
resorption and formation increased
disorganised structure
reduced bone strength
risk of fracture
linked to osteosarcoma tumour suppressor gene
osteoporosis features 5
reduced total bone mass
adequate mineralisation of present osteoid
many factors
oestrogen deficiency
relatively increased bone resorption
corticosteroid induced osteoporosis features 4
increased osteoclast acivity
decreased osteoblast activity
impaired collagen formation
increased bone turnover and poor bone formation and healing
osteopetrosis features 4
decreased turnover
unregulated (not necessarily increased) osteoblast activity
impaired osteoclast activity
dense but weak bones
fluorosis
flouride replaces calcium in the matrix
primary hyperparathyroidism features 4
unregulated PTH secretion
hyercalcaemia (and low phosphate)
markedly increased bone turnover
may retain bone mass but osteoprosis in elderly
types of rickets 7
nutritional rickets
congenital rickets
rickets of prematurity
genetic rickets
neoplastic rickets
hypophosphataemic rickets
drug induced rickets
