Bones 1 Flashcards
(102 cards)
heavily mineralized and important in the structural and protective properties of bone
cortical bone
less mineralized
less dense
greater surface area allows to be more metabolically active in bone resorption
trabecular bone
fenestrated lining of endocortical surface of bone made up of osteoprogenitor cells
endosteum
function of endosteum
regulation of calcium exchange
derived from bone-marrow stromal cells and produce osteoid - important in osteoclast differentiation and control
osteoblasts
regulates osteoblast activity
parathyroid hormone and vitamin D
osteoblasts that have been surrounded and trapped by mineralized osteoid
osteocytes
function of osteocytes
normal bone metabolism interacting with osteoblasts and other osteocytes via long cytoplasmic processes
signaling molecules that control activity of other bone cells
osteocytes
derived from mesenchymal stem cells
main function is bone resorption
osteoclast
produced by osteoblasts
Type 1 collagen fibers
composition of bone matrix
type 1 collagen fibers
ground substance
minerals (calcium hydroxyapatite)
abnormalities in bone modeling
skeletal dysplasia
dysmorphia
abnormalities in bone remodeling
bone loss or gain
osteopenia/ osteoporosis/ osteomalacia
osteopetrosis
process whereby bones are shaped or reshaped by the independent action of osteoblasts and osteoclasts
bone modeling
a process where osteoclasts, osteoblasts, osteocytes and bone lining cells work together in a bone remodeling unit
bone remodeling
type of ossification observed in flat bones
intramembranous ossification
proliferation of mesenchymal tissue forms a membrane of fibrous connective tissue with no cartilage involvement
intramembranous ossification
responsible for longitudinal bone growth of all bones that have growth plates
endochondral ossification
places of endochondral ossification
embryonic bone
ossification centers of growth plates
endochondral ossification process
resting cartilage
proliferation
hypertrophy
calcification
ossification
increased mechanical bone loading in young animals
increased deposition of metaphyseal trabecular bone and thicker bone cortex
increased mechanical bone loading in older animals
reduced resorptive removal of formed bone conserving bone mass already formed
decreased mechanical bone loading
accelerates bone loss by removing the inhibitory control of bone remodeling and the stimulatory control for bone deposition
