    Study Notes

    Bone Cells and Their Functions

    • Osteoblasts: Matrix-synthesizing cells responsible for bone formation.
    • Osteoclasts: Bone resorption cells that break down bone tissue.
    • Osteocytes: Mature bone cells that maintain bone matrix and act as "housekeepers."
    • Endosteal Lining Cells: Line internal bone surfaces; may develop from inactive osteoblasts.
    • Bone Matrix Maintenance Cells: Former osteoblasts trapped in bone matrix, lose synthetic activity but transport materials within bones.

    Extracellular Components of Bone Tissue

    • Osteoid: Unmineralized organic part of bone matrix, made of interwoven type I collagen and bone matrix proteins.
    • Hydroxyapatite: Mineral component formed from calcium phosphate that combines with osteoid to create hard bone.
    • Matrix Metalloproteinases (MMPs): Enzymes that degrade the bone matrix, involved in remodeling.
    • Lysyl Oxidase (LOX): Enzyme that crosslinks collagen, enhancing structural integrity.

    Bone Formation Processes

    Intramembranous Bone Formation

    • Involves the direct ossification of mesenchymal tissue into bone.
    • Osteoblasts secrete osteoid, forming compact bone layers parallel to the existing matrix.

    Endochondral Bone Formation

    • Cartilage Model Formation: Mesenchymal cells differentiate into chondrocytes, creating hyaline cartilage.
    • Matrix Calcification: Chondrocytes enlarge, their matrix calcifies, leading to cell death.
    • Vascularization and Bone Formation: Blood vessel invasion creates medullary cavities, osteoblasts form bone collar, initiates primary ossification.

    Postnatal Growth of Bones

    • Growth Plate (Physis): Contains zones that reflect different stages of bone cell life.
      • Resting Zone: Inactive chondrocytes, least differentiated state.
      • Proliferative Zone: Chondrocytes multiply and align in columns.
      • Hypertrophic Zone: Enlarging chondrocytes preparing for calcification.
      • Calcification Zone: Calcified cartilage, leading to apoptosis and formation of lacunae filled by osteoproginators.

    Appositional Growth

    • Mechanism for increasing diameter/thickness of growing bone.
    • Occurs in the outer bone surface and enlarges the medullary cavity inside.

    Bone Modeling vs. Bone Remodeling

    • Bone Modeling: Independent shaping and reshaping of existing bone, primarily occurs during skeletal growth.
    • Bone Remodeling: Ongoing renewal and repair of bone tissue through resorption and formation. Observed in adult skeletom where renewal occurs every 10 years.

    Bone Remodeling Unit (BRU)

    • Microscopic location where osteoclasts and osteoblasts work sequentially on the same surface to remodel bone.

    Secondary Ossification

    • Begins shortly after birth in the epiphyses, forming secondary ossification centers.
    • Epiphyseal plates ossify, resulting in the epiphyseal line; articular cartilage persists at joint surfaces.

    Summary of Bone Growth Structures

    • Long bones elongate through interstitial growth of the epiphyseal plate.
    • The mature structure of long bones features epiphyseal lines, indicating previous growth activity.

    Bone Cells and Their Functions

    • Osteoblasts: Matrix-synthesizing cells responsible for bone formation.
    • Osteoclasts: Bone resorption cells that break down bone tissue.
