30
Q

What is endochondrial ossification?

A

when bone forms in and replaces a cartilage model

31
Q

What is required for normal chondrocyte growth?

A

growth hormone, insulin-like growth factors, thyroxine, and vitamin D3 metabolites

32
Q

How many centers of ossification are there and what are they called?

A

2 - primary and secondary

33
Q

Where does intramembranous ossification occur?

A

within fibrous tissue

34
Q

What does woven bone turn into?

A

lamellar bone

35
Q

What is woven bone?

A

temporary ragged and rough bone that is rapidly produced at bone at sites of periosteal injury

36
Q

What is lamellar bone?

A

dense, well organized sheets of bone

37
Q

When is lamellar bone produced?

A

during normal bone growth and remodeling throughout life

38
Q

How is does bone compression stimulate bone growth?

A

mineral is distorted which creates piezoelectric activity which stimulates bone growth

39
Q

What are the layers of the joint capsule?

A

fibrous, loose fibrovascular, and synoviocyte

40
Q

What are the types of synoviocytes?

A

type a and b

41
Q

What are type a synoviocytes and what do they do?

A

they are macrophage-like cells that are phagocytic, produce cytokines and inflamatory mediators

42
Q

What are type b synoviocytes and what do they do?

A

they are fibroblast-like cells that produce hyaluronic acid and lubricin which is added to synovial fluid

43
Q

Which layer of the joint capsule does not have a basement membrane?

A

the synoviocyte layer

44
Q

What is articular cartilage made up of?

A

chondrocytes, collagen matrix, proteoglycan/GAG matrix, and water

45
Q

What is the life-span of chondrocytes?

A

they are long-lived cells

46
Q

What is the function of chondrocytes?

A

they have the enzymes (matrix metalloproteinases) that are able to produce and degrade matrix

47
Q

What type of collagen is articular cartilage made out of and what is the function?

A

type II and IX to provie tensile/structural strength

48
Q

What is the proteoglycan/GAG matrix made up of?

A

core protein with chondroitin SO4 side chains, hyaluronic acid, and hydrated gel

49
Q

What is synovial fluid made up of?

A

ultrafiltrate, hyaluronic acid, and glycoproteins

50
Q

What is the purpose of synovial fluid?

A

it is boundary lubricant and serves as a nutritional source for chondrocytes

51
Q

When does squeeze film lubrication come into play and how does it work?

A

during joing compression and release; compression on the cartilage squeezes fluid to the surface and opposing surfaces ride on fluid film. Release from compression and the fluid is sucked back into the cartilage

52
Q

What is the function of the nutritional pump?

A

it pumps out wastes and pumps in nutrients in the joint
