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 |
