Process of bone ossification
Osteogensis
What are the two types of ossification?
Intamembranous and Endochondral
- No hyaline cartilage model precursor
- Mesenchyme to Bone
Intanmembranous Ossification
- Hyaline cartilage model precursor
- Mesenchyme to Hyaline to Hyaline cartilage to Bone
Endochondral Ossification
What type of tissue is bone?
Connective
What does bone arise from?
Mesenchyme
When does intramembranous ossification occur?
8th week of gestation
Hyaline cartilage takes on initial shape of bone as well as bones place in the body
Hyaline cartilage model
A- Ossification centers form within thickened regions of mesenchyme
B- Osteoid endergoes calcification
C- Woven bone and surrounding periosteum form
D- Lamellar bone replaces woven bone, as compact and spongy bone form
Intramembranous ossification
Where is spongy bone formed?
Between 2 layers of compact bone
What is one characteristic of all connective tissues?
They arise from embryonic connective tissue called mesenchyme
Leads to the production of flat bones of the skull and the bones of the face
Intramembranous Ossification
Woven or immature bone
Primary
Lamellar or mature bone
Secondary
Eroded and replaced with bone
Hyaline cartilage model
Leads to the production of most short and long bones of the body
Endochondral ossification
When are the first hyaline cartilage models visible?
6th week of gestation
When are ossification centers of long bones of the limns present?
By 12th week of gestation
In intramembranous ossification, Elongated, pale-staining, mesenchymal cells cluster and differentiate to
Osteoprogenitor cells
In intramembranous ossification, What happens when cells differentiate into osteoprogenitor cells?
They become more rounded, while their cytoplasm changes from eosinophilic to basophilic
What is the basophilic cytoplasm change a result of?
More rough ER
What do osteroprogenitor cells differentiate into?
Osteoblasts
What do clusters of osteoblasts create?
The ossification center
Organic extracellular matrix
Osteoid
