27 Cards in this Set

  • Front
  • Back
Stratum basale
Cell division occurs here
Diaphysis
Shaft of long bone.
Contains compact bone
Epiphyses
Ends of the long bone.
Contains spongy Bone
Short bones
Shell of compact bone with spongy bone and marrow in the center
Flat Bones
Two layers of compact bone with spongy bone in between
Periosteum
Dense fibrous connective tissue that covers bones
Collagen fibers arranged parallel to the surface of the bone
Endosteum
Tissue lining the compact and spongy bone inside the marrow cavity
Sharpey's Fibers
Where ligaments and fibers attach to the bone , the collagen fibers of the periosteum extend into the circumferential lamellae
Bone Matrix - Inorganic
Calcium (the part we think of)
with some phosphate
Bone Matrix - Organic
Type 1 collagen
Matrix is highly mineralized
Bone tissue
Bone is a connective tissue characterized by a
highly mineralized matrix
Bone contains mainly type I collagen
Bone matrix contains lacunae connected by
canaliculi
Bone Cells
Osteoprogenitor cells
Osteoblasts
Osteoclasts
Bone lining cells
Osteoprogenitor cells
Derived from mesenchymal stem cells in the marrow

Activated to become osteoblasts by CBFA1 transcription factor

Found in the innermost layer of the periosteum and the endosteum
Osteoblasts
Cell formed from an osteogenic cell that participates in bone formation by secreting some organic components and inorganic salts.


Capable of dividing

Secretory cells that produce type I collagen + bone matrix proteins

Respond to mechanical stimuli to mediate bone growth & (re)development
Osteoclasts
Large, multinuclear cell the destroys the bone matrix

Rest directly on the bone tissue that is being removed
Osteocytes
Mature bone cells that maintain the daily activities of bone tissue (Spidery)
Parathyroid Hormone
(PTH)

Regulates blood calcium levels by increasing calcium and decreasing blood phosphate level
Calcitonin
Tones down the calcium in blood. Stores it in the bone by activating osteoclasts.

It inhibits the bone resorption (breakdown)by accelerating the uptake of calcium and phosphates into the bone matrix
Osteon/Haversian Systems
Consists of Central Canal, lamellae, launae, osteocytes, canaliculi
Central Canal
Circular channel running in the center of the osteon of mature compact bone. Contains BV
Volkman's Canal
Means by which blood vessels and nerves from the periosteum penetrate into compact bone

- Contains BV that travel from one central canal to the other.
Canaliculli
small channels within bones that connect lacunae
lacunae
small hollow space in bones in which the osteocytes lay
Nail Cuticle
eponychium
Half Moon on nail
Lunula
clubbing of fingers
associated with heart and liver disease. nails get huge
Cyanosis
Nail beds and fingers appear blue due to lack of oxygen in the tissues
