What is a suture?
a fibrous joint held together by dense CT, that are between the flat bones of the skull
What is a gomphosis?
a fibrous joint held together by dense CT to form the periodontal ligament (teeth)
What is synchondrosis?
hyaline cartilage connects bones
ex: in growth plates of long bones
and manubrium of sternum and
What is Syndesmoses?
flexible Dense CT membrane between adjacent long bones
ex: tibia/fibula and ulna/radius
What is Symphesis?
fibrocartilage

ex:pubic symphisis, sarcoilliac joints, intervertaebral discs
What are the bones of the knee?
the femur and tibia form the joint and the patella helps restrict movement to prevent hyperextension
What are the ligaments of the knee?
1) quadriceps tendon to patellar ligament
2)cruciate ligament
3)collateral ligaments
4) popliteal ligaments
What is the cartilage of the knee?
1)articular cartilage (hyaline)
2)medial and lateral menisci on tibia (fibrocartilage)
What is the adipose tissue of the knee?
the infrapatellar fat pad
What is the bursae of the knee?
1)suprapatellar bursa
2)infrapatellar bursa
What are the bones of the shoulder joint?
1)scapula
2)humerus
3)clavicle
What is the cartilage of the shoulder joint?
1)articular cartilage
2)glenoid labrum
What is the ligaments of the shoulder joint?
several thin, strap- like ligaments from Glenoid labrum, Acromion process & Corocoid process of scapula to clavicle to humerus
What is the bursae of the shoulder joint?
1)Subdeltoid bursa
2)Subscapular bursa
What are the bones of the hip joint?
1)hip bone
2)femur
What are the ligaments of the hip joint?
3 broad, thick ligaments, 1 nutrient ligament
Iliofemoral ligament, ischiofemoral ligament, pubofemoral ligament
Ligament of the head of the femur (ligamentum capitus): nutrients!
What is the cartilage of the hip joint?
Articular cartilage on head of femur and in acetabulum of hip bone (ilium, ischium and pubis)
Acetabular labrum surrounds acetabulum: fibrocartilage
What is a pathological fracture?
caused by a didease like osteoporosis
What is a traumatic fracture?
caused by and impact to the bone
What is a stress fracture?
caused by repeated stress, especially by athletes who train very hard; shin splints, Osgood-Schlatters
What is a simple (closed) fracture?
the bone doesn’t pierce through the skin
What is a compound (open) fracture?
the bone pierces through the skin
What is a partial fracture?
fracture does not go completely through the bone
What is a greenstick fracture?
incomplete fracture in children where bone bends
What is a complete fracture?
fracture goes completely through the bone
What is a displaced fracture?
bone pieces are no longer in anatomical position
What is a spiral fracture?
bone twisted apart; Fissured: fracture is linear, parallel to long axis of bone; transverse: fracture is perpendicular to long axis of bone; oblique: fracture is neither parallel nor perpendicular to long axis of bone
What is a segmental fracture?
bone is in more than 2 pieces
What is a impacted fracture?
one fragment in driven into another
What is a comminuted fracture?
splintered at point of impact
How is vitamin D used in bone remodeling?
to absorb calcium from food into blood
How is vitimin A used in bone remodeling?
coordinates osteoblast/osteoclast balance
How is vitamin C used in bone remodeling?
production and maintenance of collagen, the protein portion of bone that makes it stable
How is vitamin B12 used in bone remodeling?
osteoblasts need it to function normally, the only B vitamin not found in vegetable foods so vegetarians, especially vegans may need to take supplementation !
How is calcitonin used in bone remodeling?
Inhibits osteoclast activity, so increases bone mass in general
How is the parathyroid hormone used in bone remodeling?
produced by the parathyroid glands.
It stimulates osteoclast activity, so decreases bone mass, in general.
It also influences the kidneys to reduce calcium excretion to increase blood calcium, and increase phosphate excretion to reduce blood PO4-.
How is estrogen used in bone remodeling?
Increase osteoblast activity, so increases bone mass in general.
Potent maturation factor in growth plates of long bones.
This is why girls grow faster in early puberty, but stop growing earlier than boys.
How is the human growth hormone used in bone remodeling?
produced in anterior pituitary gland and Thyroid hormones (T3 and T4) produced in thyroid gland
Increases the growth & metabolic rate of most cells, including bone cells
How is progesterone and testosterone used in bone remodeling?
produced in adrenal cortex and ovaries or testes
Effects are similar to estrogen, but not as potent.
The growth effects of testosterone continue much longer in boys than estrogen’s growth effects in girls, so boys grow longer, and therefore taller, in general
How is leptin used in bone remodeling?
produced by adipose cells
Increases bone mass by stimulating osteoblasts, especially in growth plates
This is NOT just an effect of the body adjusting to increased weight as was previously thought
More on leptin in the Reproductive System
How is Osteoprotegrin / OPG-ligand used in bone remodeling?
are both made by osteoblasts
OPG ligand binds to osteoclasts, triggering proliferation and therefore bone mass loss, in general
OPG serves as a decoy, bonding to OPG-ligand and preventing bone reabsorption, so osteoblasts can control breakdown of bone
How is oxytocin used in bone remodeling?
made by the hypothalamus of the brain and stored and released by the posterior pituitary gland
OT has dual effects on the osteoclast. It stimulates osteoclast formation both directly and indirectly. OT also inhibits bone resorption by mature osteoclasts by triggering cytosolic Ca2+ release among other actions.
Potential for osteoporosis therapy
How is serotonin used in bone remodeling?
made by the duodenum (but better known as a neurotransmitter in the brain)
Serotonin is stimulates bone formation by stimulating osteocytes, osteoblasts, and periosteal fibroblasts.
What are the layers of the epidermis from deepest up?
1)stratum basale
2)stratum spinosum
3)stratum granulosum
4)stratum lucidum
5)stratum corneum
