Phosphate

- ATP utilization - plasma membrane

Nerves that Supply Bone

- accompany blood vessels through foramen - innervate bone, periosteum, endosteum, and marrow cavity - mainly sensory nerves

Yellow Bone Marrow

- Product of red bone marrow degeneration as children mature - fatty substance - may convert back to red bone marrow during severe anemia - facilitates production of additional erythrocytes

Activation of Vitamin D to Calcitrol

- UV light concerts 7-dehydrocholesterol to Vitamin D3: cholecalciferol; released into blood; absorbed from small intestine from diet - Vitamin D3 circulates throughout the body: converted to calcidiol by liver enzymes; adds an -OH group - calcidiol circulates in the blood: converted to calcidiol by kidney enzymes; an -OH group added; active form of Vitamin D3: calcitriol; parathyroid hormone increases rate, so more calcitriol is formed - calcitriol stimulates absorption of calcium ions from small intestine into the blood

PTH and Calcitriol Interactions

- act synergistically to increase release of calcium from the bone into the blood; increase osteoclast activity - stimulate the kidney to excrete less calcium in urine; increasing calcium reabsorption in the kidney tubules - only calcitriol increases absorption of calcium from small intestine into the blood

Calcitonin

- aids in regulating blood calcium levels - less significant role than PTH or calcitriol - released from the thyroid gland in response to high blood calcium levels - secreted in response to exercise - inhibits osteoclast activity - stimulates kidneys to increase loss of calcium in the urine to reduce blood calcium levels - greatest effect during greatest bone turnover (ex: growing children) - therapeutic injections: not able to provide long-term decrease in blood calcium - entire function still unclear

Hyaline Cartilage

- attaches ribs to sternum - covers ends of some bones - cartilage within growth plates - provides model for formation of most bones in body

Osteons

- basic functional and structural unit of mature compact bone - oriented parallel to bone diaphysis - appears as bull's-eye target - composed of central canal, concentric lamellae, osteocytes, canaliculi

Process of Cartilage Growth

- begins during embryonic development - grows in length during interstitial growth: occurs within regions of cartilage - growth in width by appositional growth: occurs on cartilage's outside edge

Bone Growth and Remodeling

- begins during embryonic development - interstitial growth depends upon cartilage growth in epiphyseal plate - 5 zones of epiphyseal plate: nearest epiphysis, small chondrocytes distributed throughout matrix, resembles mature hyaline cartilage, secures epiphysis to epiphyseal plate

Endochonral Ossification

- begins with a hyaline cartilage model - produces most bones of skeleton, including bones of upper and lower limbs, pelvis, vertebrae, ends of clavicle - ex: long bone development

Bone Formation

- begins with secretion of osteoid - calcification occurs, deposition of hydroxyapatite crystals (calcium and phosphate ions precipitate out, form crystals - requires Vitamin D (enhances calcium absorption from GI tract, Vitamin C (required for collagen formation, calcium and phosphate (for calcification)

Hemopoiesis

- blood cell production - occurs in red bone marrow connective tissue - stem cells form blood cells and platelets

Intramembranous Ossification

- bone growth within a membrane - dermal ossification - produces: flat bones of skull, some facial bones, mandible, central part of clavicle - begins when mesenchyme thickens with capillaries

Blood Supply

- bone highly vascularized in regions of spongy bone - vessels enter from periosteum - nutrient foramen: small opening or hole in bone; artery entrance and vein exit here

Red Bone Marrow Transplant

- bone marrow destroyed by radiation / chemo - abnormally functioning marrow - harvested cells injected into bloodstream of recipient - migrate to normal locations for red bone marrow - must be a "match" between donor and recipient so immune system doesn't attack

Parallel Lamellae

- bone matrix - osteocytes between lamellae - canaliculi radiate from lacunae

Bone Resorption

- bone matrix is destroyed by substances released from osteoclasts - proteolytic enzymes released from lysosomes within osteoclasts (chemically digest organic matrix components) - calcium and phosphate dissolved by hydrochloric acid - occurs when blood calcium levels are low

Fractures

- breaks in bone - result of unusual stress or sudden impact - increased incidence with age due to normal thinning and weakening of bone

Components of Skeletal System

- cartilage - ligaments - other connective tissue

Hyaline Cartilage

- cells scattered through matrix of protein fibers - embedded in a gel-like ground substance (includes proteoglycans but not calcium) - resistant and flexible - high percentage of water - highly compressible and a good shock absorber - avascular and contains no nerves - includes chondroblasts, chondrocytes, perichondrium

Achondroplasia

- characterized by abnormal conversion of hyaline cartilage to bone - most common: achondroplastic dwarfism: long bones of limbs stop growing in childhood; other bones continue normal growth - short in stature but large head - failure of chondrocytes in epiphyseal plate to grow and enlarge - inadequate endochondral ossification

Chondrocytes

- chondroblasts encased within the matrix - occupy small spaces: lacunae - maintain the matrix

Zone of Hypertrophic Cartilage (of Epiphyseal Plate)

- chondrocytes cease dividing - begin to hypertrophy - walls of lacunae become thin

Zone of Proliferating Cartilage (of Epiphyseal Plate)

- chondrocytes undergo rapid mitotic division - align into longitudinal columns of flattened lacunae - columns parallel to diaphysis

Steps of Interstitial Growth

- chondrocytes within lacuna are stimulated to mitotically divide - two cells, chondroblasts, occupy a single lacuna - chondroblasts secrete new material and are pushed apart; each is now called a chondrocyte - cartilage continues to grow internally

Interstitial Lamellae

- components of compact bone between osteons or partially resorbed osteons - look like they have a "bite" taken out - incomplete: no central canal - not a part of osteon; part of long bone

Zone of Calcified Cartilage (of Epiphyseal Plate)

- composed of 2 to 3 layers of chondrocytes - minerals are deposited between columns of lacunae - destroys chondrocytes

Bone Remodeling

- continues throughout adulthood - occurs at different rates: distal part of femur replaced every 4-6 months; diaphysis of femur not completely replaced over a lifetime - 20% of skeleton replaced yearly - dependent upon the coordinated activities of osteoblasts, osteocytes, osteoclasts - influenced by hormones and mechanical stress

Endosteum

- covers all internal surfaces of bone within medullary cavity - incomplete layer of cells - contains osteoprogenitor cells, osteoblasts, osteoclasts

Articular Cartilage

- covers the joint surface - thin layer of hyaline cartilage - reduces friction - absorbs shock in moveable joints

Central Canal

- cylindrical channel at center of osteon and parallel to it - blood vessels and nerves extend through channel

Aging Bone

- decreased tensile strength of bone: reduced rate of protein synthesis by osteoblasts; relative amount of inorganic material increases; become brittle and susceptible to fracture - bone loss of calcium and other minerals: bones thinner and weaker; insufficient ossification: osteopenia

Perichondrium

- dense regular connective tissue - covers cartilage and helps maintain its shape

Regions of Long Bone

- diaphysis - medullary cavity - epiphysis - metaphysis - epiphyseal plate

Rickets

- disease caused by Vitamin D deficiency in childhood - characterized by deficient calcification of osteoid tissue - bowlegged appearance - disturbances in growth, hypocalcemia, tetany (cramps and twitches) - occurs in some developing nations - incidence increasing in urban US children

Steps of Cartilage Growth

- during early embryonic development: interstitial and appositional growth occur simultaneously - as cartilage matures: interstitial growth declines rapidly, cartilage becomes semirigid, future growth primarily appositonal - after cartilage is fully mature: new cartilage growth stops, growth occurs only after injury

Irregular Bones

- elaborate, sometimes complex shapes - do not fit any other category - vertebrae, ossa coxae (hip bones), several bones in skull (ethmoid, sphenoid, sutureal bones)

Diaphysis

- elongated, usually cylindrical shaft - provides leverage and weight support - compact bone with thin spicules of spongy bone extending inward

Sex Hormones

- estrogen and testosterone - secreted in large amounts at puberty: dramatically accelerate bone growth - increases rate of cartilage growth and bone formation in epiphyseal plate - bone formation rate greater than cartilage growth: eventually cartilage replaced with bone (growth stops)

Steps of Long Bone Development (w/ Endochondral Ossification)

- fetal hyaline cartilage model develops: chondroblasts secrete cartilage matrix during 8th to 12th week of development - cartilage calcifies, a periosteal bone collar forms: chondrocytes in the cartilage model produce holes in the matrix; matrix calcifies and chondrocytes die (produces calcified cartilage shaft with large holes); blood vessels grow toward cartilage; osteoblasts develop and secrete osteoid (form a layer of osteoid around calcified cartilage shaft and periosteal bone formed) - primary ossification center forms in diaphysis: periosteal bud extends from periosteum into cartilage shaft (growth of capillaries and osteoblasts); osteoids produce osteoid on calcified cartilage template: primary ossification center of bone formation, most formed by 12th week of development - bone development extends in both directions towards epiphyses - bone connective tissue displaces calcified, degenerating cartilage - secondary ossification centers form in epiphyses: hyaline cartilage calcifies and degenerates; blood vessels and osteoprogenitor cells enter; secondary ossification centers form (bone displaces cartilage, not all form at birth); osteoclasts resorb some bone matrix (creates hollow medullary cavity) - bone replaces cartilage, except articular cartilage and epiphyseal plates - epiphyseal plates ossify and form epiphyseal lines: lengthwise bone growth continues into puberty; growth continues until epiphyseal plate is converted into epiphyseal line (indicates bone has reached adult length); occurs between ages 10-25

Flat Bones

- flat, thin surfaces, may be slightly curved - provide surfaces for muscle attachment - protect underlying soft tissues - located in roof of skull scapulae, sternum, ribs

Ossification / Osteogenesis

- formation and development of bone connective tissue - begins in the embryo - continues through childhood and adolescence - by 8th through 12th weeks of embryonic development: skeleton begins forming from intramembranous ossification or endochondral ossification

Steps of Bone Fracture Repair

- fracture hematoma forms from clotted blood: blood vessels torn within periosteum - fibrocartilaginous callus forms: regenerated blood capillaries infiltrate hematoma; fracture hematoma reorganized into a connective tissue procallus; fibroblasts produce collagen fibers; chondroblasts form dense regular connective tissue; procallus becomes fibrocartilaginous (soft) callus - hard bony callus forms: osteoblasts adjacent to callus produce trabeculae; replaces callus; forms a hard (bony) callus; continues to grow and thicken - bone is remodeled: final phase of fracture repair; osteoclasts remove excess bony material; compact bone replaces primary bone; usually leaves a slight thickening of bone

Osteoblasts

- from osteoprogenitor stem cells - side-by-side on bone surfaces - cuboidal shape - abundant rough ER and Golgi apparatus - synthesize and secrete osteoid - become entrapped within the matrix - differentiate into osteocytes

Long Bones

- greater in length than width - elongated, cylindrical shaft (diaphysis) - most common bone shape - found in upper and lower limbs - vary in size

Glucocorticoids

- group of steroid hormones - released from adrenal cortex - regulate blood glucose level - high amounts increase bone loss: impairs growth at epiphyseal plate in children; must monitor if child receiving high doses of glucocorticoids (ex: asthma)

Red Bone Marrow

- hemopoietic: blood cell forming - reticular connective tissue, immature blood cells, fat - in children: located in spongy bone and medullary cavity of long bones - in adults: located only in selected areas of axial skeleton (skull, vertebrae, ribs, sternum, ossa coxae, proximal epiphyses of humerus and femur)

Medullary Cavity

- hollow, cylindrical space within the diaphysis - contains red bone marrow in children - contains yellow bone marrow in adults

Epiphyseal Plate

- in metaphysis - growth plate - thin layer of hyaline cartilage - provides for lengthwise bone growth - in adults, the epiphyseal line, is the remnant of of the epiphyseal plate

Osteoid

- initial semisolid organic form of bone matrix - later calcifies

Forensic Anthropology

- juvenile skeleton with separate diaphysis and epiphysis - adult skeleton with whole fused bones - this helps determine age of skeletal remains - open: no union between epiphysis and other bone end - partial union: some fusion between epiphysis and rest of bone - complete union: all visible aspects united to rest of bone - female epiphyseal plates fuse about 1-2 years earlier than males

Epiphysis

- knobby region at each end of long bone - proximal: closest to body trunk - distal: farthest from trunk - composed of outer layer of compact bone and inner region of spongy bone - articulate cartilage covers the joint surface

Osteoclasts

- large, multinuclear, phagocytic cells - derived from fused bone marrow cells - ruffled border increases surface area exposed to bone - located within / adjacent to a depression / pit on bone surface: resorption lacuna - involved in bone resorption

Short Bones

- length nearly equal to width - carpal bones (wrist bones), tarsals (foot bones), sesamoid bones (bones along tendons of some muscles), patella (knee cap)

Spongy Bone (Cancellous / Trabecular)

- located internal to compact bone - appears porous - 20% of bone mass

Four Classes of Bones

- long bones - flat bones - short bones - irregular bones

Epiphyseal Plate

- maintains thickness during childhood - at maturity, rate of cartilage production slows - osteoblastic activity increases - plate narrows until it disappears: interstitial growth stops - remnant is an internal thin line of compact bone: epiphyseal line

Osteocyte

- mature bone cells derived from osteoblasts - lost bone-forming ability - maintain bone matrix - detect mechanical stress on bone - trigger deposition of new bone matrix - found in small spaces between concentric lamellae: lacunae

Hormones

- molecules released from one cell into the blood - travel throughout the body to affect cells - bind to cellular receptors of specific cells - initiate specific cellular changes - some alter rates of chondrocyte, osteoblast, osteoclast activity - affect bone composition and growth patterns

Serotonin

- neurotransmitter and hormone - most bones with serotonin receptors - role in rate and regulation of normal bone remodeling - if levels are too high: osteoprogenitor cells are prevented from differentiating into osteoblasts; could be linked to low bone density disorders

Mechanical Stress

- occurs in weight-bearing movement and exercise - required for normal bone remodeling - detected by osteocytes and communicated to osteoblasts: increase synthesis of osteoid - causes increase in bone strength - results from skeletal contraction and gravitational forces - can increase bone mass with weight-bearing activities and can increase total bone mass - can decrease bone mass from removal of mechanical stress, reduced collagen formation, demineralization (decreased strength of unstressed bone in immobilized fracture)

Osteopenia

- occurs slightly in all people with age - begins age 35-40 - osteoblast activity declines; osteoclast activity at previous levels - vertebrae, jaw bones, epiphyses lose large amounts of mass - women lose more of their skeletal mass every decade than men

Interstitial Bone Growth in Length

- occurs specifically within Zone 2 (Proliferating Cartilage) and Zone 3 (Hypertrophic Cartilage) - pushes zone of resting cartilage toward epiphysis - flexible hyaline cartilage permitting growth - new hyaline cartilage replaced by bone - similar to endochondral ossification during bone development

Appositional Growth

- occurs within the periosteum - bone matrix deposited within layers parallel to surface - layers termed external circumferential lamellae: as they increase in number, structure increases in diameter - osteoclasts resorb bone matrix along medullary cavity - transforms infant bone into a larger adult version

Trabeculae

- open lattice of marrow rods and plates of bones - bone marrow fills spaces - meshwork of crisscrossing bars - resistance to stresses

Steps of Intramembranous Ossification

- ossification centers form within thickened regions of mesenchyme: some cells become osteoprogenitor cells, some cells become osteoblasts secreting osteoid - osteoid undergoes calcification: calcium salts deposit onto osteoid and crystallize - entrapped cells become osteocytes - woven bone and surrounding periosteum form: at first, bone is immature and poorly organized; woven bone: primary bone; mesenchyme surrounding woven bone forms periosteum - lamellar bone (secondary bone) replaces woven bone; compact and spongy bone form trabeculae: typical structure of a flat cranial bone, composed of 2 external layers of compact bone, layer of sponge bone in between

Organic Components of Bone Matrix

- osteoid produced by osteoblasts containing collagen protein and semisolid ground substance of proteoglycans and glycoproteins - gives bones tensile strength by resisting stretching - contributes to bone flexibility

Bone Connective Tissue

- primary component of bone - osseous connective tissue - bone is composed of cells and extracellular matrix - includes osteoprogenitor cells, osteoblasts, osteocytes, osteoclasts

Bones

- primary organ of skeletal system - support - protection - movement (attachment sights for muscles, tissues, organs; muscle contraction) - hemopoiesis - storage of mineral and energy reserves (calcium and phosphate released from bone into blood when needed)

Growth Hormone: Somatotropin

- produced by anterior pituitary gland - stimulates liver to produce somatotropin hormone: directly stimulates growth of cartilage in epiphyseal plate

Osteoporosis

- reduced bone mass sufficient to compromise normal function - occurs in a significant percentage of older women - occurs in a smaller percentage of older men - reduced hormones with age - results in decreased bone mass, weakened bones prone to fracture - postmenopausal women at most risk - increased incidence of fracture especially at wrist, hip, vertebral column - best treatment is prevention with diet and physical activity in young adults - medical treatments involve slowing rate of bone loss and attempting to stimulate new bone growth

Calcium

- regulating calcium concentration in blood is essential - required for initiation of muscle contraction, exocytosis of molecules from cells and neurons, stimulation of the heart by pacemaker cells, blood clotting - regulated by calcitriol and parathyroid hormone

Compact Bone (Dense / Cortical)

- relatively dense connective tissue - appears white, smooth, solid - 80% of bone mass

Perforating / Volkmann Canals

- resemble central canals - blood vessels and nerves travel through - perpendicular to central canals - connect central canals within different osteons - not a part of osteon; part of long bone

Osteitis Deformans

- results from disruption between osteoclast and osteoblast function - characterized by excessive bone resorption followed by excessive bone deposition - larger osteoclasts resorb bone at higher rate - newly deposited bone poorly formed - most commonly affected bones: pelvis, skull, vertebrae, femur, tibia - symptoms: bone deformity, pain

Circumferential Lamellae

- rings of bone - external: run immediately internal to bone periosteum - internal: run internal to the endosteum - both run the entire circumference of the bone - not a part of osteon; part of long bone

Concentric Lamellae

- rings of bone connective tissue - surround central canal - collagen fibers: 90° from previous and next lamellae; gives bone strength and resilience

Inorganic Components of Bone Matrix

- salt crystals, calcium phosphate - interacts with calcium hydroxide: forms crystals, hydroxyapatite - other substances incorporated into crystals: calcium carbonate, sodium, magnesium, sulfate, fluoride - crystals deposit around collagen fibers - harden matrix and account for rigidity of bones

Parathyroid Hormone (PTH)

- secreted and released by parathyroid glands in response to blood calcium levels - accelerates conversion to calcitriol by kidney

Thyroid Hormone

- secreted by thyroid gland - influences basal metabolic rate of bone cells - regulates normal activity at epiphyseal plates

Fracture Healing

- simple fracture: 2-3 months to heal - compound fracture: longer to heal - healing slows with age - some require surgical intervention to heal correctly

Bone Marrow

- soft connective tissue of bone - red and yellow bone marrow

Steps of Appositonal Growth

- stem cells at edge of perichondrium begin to divide - new undifferentiated stem cells and new chondroblasts are formed - chondroblasts push apart and become chondrocytes

Osteoprogenitor Cells

- stem cells derived from mesenchyme - cellular division yields another stem cell and a "committed cell" (matures to become an osteoblast) - located in periosteum and endosteum

Stress Fractures

- thin break caused by increased physical activity - bone experiences repetitive loads (ex: runners)

Canaliculi

- tiny, interconnecting channels within bone connective tissue - extend from each lacuna, travel through lamellae, and connect to lacunae and central canal - house osteocyte projections that allow intercellular contact - allow exchange of nutrients, minerals, gases, and wastes between blood vessels and osteocytes

Periosteum

- tough sheath covering outer surface of bone - outer fibrous layer of dense irregular connective tissue - protects bone from surrounding structures - anchors blood vessels and nerves to bone surface - attachment site for ligaments and tendons - inner cellular layer includes osteoprogenitor cells, osteoblasts, osteoclasts - attached to bone by numerous collagen fibers: perforating fibers

Components of Spongy Bone

- trabeculae - parallel lamellae

Zone of Ossification (of Epiphyseal Plate)

- walls break down between lacunae in columns - spaces invaded by capillaries and osteoprogenitor cells - new bone matrix deposited on the calcified cartilage matrix
