The mineralized ECM of bone, providing support and protection
|
Calcium hydroxyapetite
|
|
Osteonectin is an example of a what? What is its purpose?
|
multiadhesive glycoprotein, a non-collagenous ECM protein in the bone. It attaches collagen fibers to hydroxyapetite crystals.
|
|
The non-collagenous matrix proteoglycans give what characteristics to bone?
|
They prevent bone from mineralizing, contributing to its compressive strength
|
|
Sialoproteins and osteopontin (non-collagenous multiadhesive) serve what purpose in the bone ECM?
|
They mediate attachment of cells to bone ECM and help during mineralization
|

Upon which vitamin are the bone-specific proteins of the non-collagenous type in bone ECM dependent?
|
Vit. K; They include osteocalcin, protein S, and matrix Gla-protein
|
|
Name of the ducts through which the cytoplasm of osteoclasts project and communicate with one another
|
canaliculi
|
|
A bone is formed of:
(hint: 6 components) |
- bone tissue
- hemopoietic tissue - fat tissue - blood vessels - nerves - hyaline cartilage on articular surfaces of long bone |
|
Another name for the bone shaft
|
diaphysis
|
|
Another name for the ends of long bones
|
epiphyses
|
|
The name for the junction of bone shaft and bone end
|
metaphysis
|
|
metacarpals are an example of what type of bone?
|
long bone
|
|
carpals are an example of what type of bone?
|
short bone
|
|
the calvaria (skull bone) is an example of what kind of bone?
|
flat bone
|
|
ethmoid bone is an example of what type of bone?
|
irregular bone
|
|
outer surface of bone = ?
Where is it not continuous? |
periosteum
covers all bone except where there is articular cartilage |
|
Periosteum is made of two layers:
|
inner cellular layer (osteoprogenitor cells) and outer fibrous layer
|
|
inner surface of bone = ?
Of what is it made? |
endosteum
osteoprogenitor cells, bone lining cells, osteoblasts |
|
red marrow consists of...
yellow marrow consists of... |
red - developing blood cells, reticular cells and fibers, blood vessels
yellow - fat cells |
|
with age, red marrow becomes yellow marrow, except in the...
|
iliac crest and sternum
|
|
cylindrical units that make up compact bone
|
osteons (aka Haversian systems)
osteonal (Haversian) canal contains vessels and nerves |
|
What are the holes called through which vessels enter the bone?
Through what part(s) of a long bone do they enter? |
nutrient foramina
Diaphysis and Epiphysis |
|
List the types of collagen present in bone. (Hint: one type is very common, another is present in small amounts, and three others are found in trace amounts)
|
type 1 - found in all bone, very prominent.
type 5 - found in small amounts types 2, 11, and 13 - found in trace amounts |
|
Haversian (osteonal) canals run (with/against) the grain of lamella?
What is the name of the canals for which the other answer would be true? |
With
Voltmann's canals (a.k.a. perforating canals) run against the grain |
|
What part of bone (if any) is provided with lymphatic drainage?
|
Only periosteum
|
|
How does immature bone differ from mature bone?
|
- "nonlamellar" - doesn't display an organized lamellar pattern; cells randomly arranged
- relatively more cells per unit area than mature bone - matrix has more ground substance than mature bone - less heavily mineralized than mature bone - forms more rapidly than mature bone |
|
Where does immature bone exist in adults?
|
Areas of remodeling or repair; tooth sockets
|
|
Which of the following are related in terms of ancestry? In what order do they develop?
Osteoblasts, osteoclasts, osteoprogenitor cells, and osteocytes |
-progenitor --> -blast --> cyte
|
|
Osteoid
|
the initially secreted unmineralized matrix, secreted by osteoblasts
|
|
What two enzymes are used clinically as markers of osteoblast activity?
|
alkaline phosphatase
osteocalcin |
|
Function of bone lining cells
|
provide support for osteocytes
regulate movement of calcium and phosphate into and out of bone |
|
Three functional states of osteocytes:
|
quiescence
formative resorptive |
|
What stains take to osteoclasts?
|
cytoplasm stains acidophilic
|
|
name for the resorption pit in which osteoclasts sit:
|
Howship's lacunae
|
|
Osteoclasts derive from what type of cell? Under the influence of what proteins does this differentiation occur?
|
derive from marrow precursors (CFU-GM)
M-CSF, TNF, and several interleukins --> all cytokines |
|
Later in osteoclast development, CFU-GM precursor cells express RANK (receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa B) binds to RANKL (L=ligand) on what cells?
|
stromal cells
|
|
What protein blocks the binding of RANK to RANKL? What cells make it?
|
osteoprotegerin (OPG)
osteoblasts |
|
What morphologic region on osteoclasts is characterized by deeply folded plasma membrane, proton pumps, and proximity to mito and lysosomes?
|
Ruffled border
|
|
What morphologic region is characterized by ring-like perimeter surrounding the ruffled border; containing actin filaments but lacking other organelles; associated with talin and vinculin (actin-binding prots); and adhesive proteins to help seal the cell to bone matrix?
|
Clear zone
|
|
By what means does the osteoclast decalcify the matrix?
What enz produces the active ingredient? |
Acidification; proton pumps transport protons through ruffled border, creating low pH environment
Carbonic anhydrase II produces carbonic acid |
|
T/F: When osteoclasts are finished with resorption, they detach from bone and enter marrow to be transported to the next site of resorption
|
False. They undergo apoptosis when they are completed with resorption.
|
|
Where does intramembranous ossification occur?
|
skull, face, clavicle
|
|
In terms of staining, calcified cartilage is _________.
Bone is ___________. |
Basophilic
Eosinophilic |
|
mineralization
|
osteocalcin and sialoproteins bind extracellular calcium, increasing local concentration. Osteoblasts secrete Alkaline Phosphatase, increasing phosphate concentration. formation of CaPO4, deposited between collagen I fibrils.

Is blood Ca concentration altered to maintain constant bone calcium levels or is the opposite true?
|
The opposite is true.
