- acidophilic cytoplasm
- occupy shallow depresion- Howship's lacunae |
|
Osteoclasts secrete three signaling molecules: |
- macrophage colony-stimulating factor M-CSF--> binds to receptor on macrophage --> proliferating octeoclast precursor --> expresion and activation of kappa B (RANK) on precursor - RANKL - OPG- member of tumor necrosis factor receptor TNFR, interacting with RANKL prohibiting it from binding to macrophage thus inhibiting osteoclast formation |
|
regulate bone matabolism and osteoclast activity: |
RANKL RANK OPG |
|
Osteoclast active in bone resorption may be subdivided into four morphologically recognizable regions: |
- basal zone (the farthest from Howship lacunae, houses most organelles)
- ruffled border - projection of the cell directly involved in resorption, finger-like processes project into- subosteoclastic compartment
- clear zone (surrounds periphery of ruffled border), organelle free, contains many actin myofilaments --> actin ring- contact with Howship lacunae
- vesicular zone (between basal zone and ruffled border), consists of many endocytotic, exocytotic vesicles that ferry lysosomal enzymes |
|
Mechnism of bone resorption: |
carbonic anhydrase: CO2 + H2O --> H2CO3 dissociation: H+ +HCO3- ( bicarbonate ions and Na+ cross plasmalemma --> capillaries) proton pumps of plasmalemma of ruffled border of the osteoclasts actively transport H+ into subosteocentric compartment lower pH- acidic (Cl- ions follow passively) inorganic component of the matrix dissolves |
|
Lysosomal hydrolases Metalloproteinases: collagenase, gelatinase |
are secrteted by osteoclasts into subosteoclastic compartment to degenerate organic components of bone matrix --> broken down into aminoacids, disacharides --> capillaries |
|
Osteopetrosis- |
- genetic disorder where osteoclasts do not posses ruffled border! - no bone resorption, increased bone density - anemia decreased marrow space, blindness, cranial nerve involvement |
|
Hormonal control of bone resorption: |
parathyroid gland ( chief cells) --> parathyroid hormone --> increase concentration of calcium in the blood, increase bone resorption
thyroid gland (parafollicular cells- C-cells) --> calcitonin --> reduces blood calcium level, decrease osteoclasts activity, stimulates osteoblasts |
|

|
Events that occur at the primary center of ossification: |
within the embryo --> hyaline cartilage model of that bone develops --> appositional and interstitial growth --> chondrocytes hypertrophy, glycogen accumulation, , enlargment of lacunae, calcified
perichondrium at the midriff of the diaphysis of cartilage becomes vascularized ! --> chondrogenic cells became osteoprogenitor cells --> osteoblasts, perichondrium--> periosteum
osteoblasts secrete bone matrix, forming subperiosteal bone collar (intramembranous bone formation)
due to collar, chpertrophic chondrocytes die- this process is responsible for presence of empty lacunae, future marrow cavity

steps:
- formation of the hematoma (hemorrhaging)
- blood clot --> fibroblasts --> granulation tissue
- formation of internal callus
- cartilage --> cancellous bone (endochondrialy) * primary bone
- remodeling primary bone of intramembranous bone formation is replaced by secondary bone
