    Study Notes

    Intramembranous Ossification

    • Forms flat cranial and facial bones.
    • Begins with mesenchymal cells differentiating into osteoblasts.
    • Osteoblasts secrete extracellular matrix (ECM) forming an ossification center.
    • Mineral salts deposited by osteoblasts calcify the ECM.
    • Trabeculae form, creating spongy bone tissue.
    • Connective tissue between trabeculae becomes red bone marrow.
    • Mesenchymal tissue surrounding trabeculae compacts, forming the periosteum.

    Endochondral Ossification

    • Forms most bones, including long bones.
    • Begins with mesenchymal cells differentiating into chondroblasts.
    • Chondroblasts secrete collagen forming hyaline cartilage.
    • Chondroblasts continue to secrete ECM, causing interstitial growth (length) and appositional growth (circumference).
    • Nutrient artery penetrates the perichondrium.
    • Osteoprogenitor cells become osteoblasts, forming trabeculae in the diaphysis (primary ossification center).
    • Perichondrium compacts into the periosteum.
    • Hyaline cartilage loses nutrients and degenerates.
    • Primary ossification extends toward the ends of bones.
    • Osteoclasts digest spongy bone, creating the medullary cavity.
    • Secondary ossification centers form at birth creating epiphyses.
    • Hyaline cartilage at joints becomes articular cartilage.
    • Cartilage at metaphyses remains until adolescence.

    Bone Growth

    • Bones grow interstitially (lengthwise) and appositionally (circumferentially).
    • Interstitial growth occurs at the epiphyseal plate.
    • Epiphyseal plate has four zones: resting, proliferating, hypertrophic, and calcified.

    Zones of the Epiphyseal Plate

    • Zone of resting cartilage: Anchors the epiphyseal plate to bone.
    • Zone of proliferating cartilage: Cells actively divide, contributing to interstitial growth.
    • Zone of hypertrophic cartilage: Mature chondrocytes are large and arranged in columns.
    • Zone of calcified cartilage: Contains layers of dead chondrocytes.
    • Once the epiphyseal plate closes, chondrocytes stop dividing and ECM calcifies.

    Appositional Growth

    • Circumferential growth.
    • Periosteal cells become osteoblasts.
    • ECM ridges form around periosteal vessels, and fuse.
    • Former periosteum becomes the endosteum.
    • Endosteal osteoblasts secrete ECM, forming new concentric lamellae.
    • Osteoclasts in the endosteum resorb bone, allowing the medullary cavity to grow.

    Factors Affecting Bone Growth

    • Nutrition: Adequate calcium, vitamin D, and other nutrients are crucial for bone growth.
    • Hormones:
      • Growth hormones stimulate osteoblasts during childhood and adolescence.
      • Thyroid hormones (T3 and T4) stimulate osteoblasts.
      • Estrogen inhibits bone resorption.
      • Testosterone alters bone growth rates.
    • Exercise: Weight-bearing exercise promotes bone remodeling and strength.

    Bone Remodeling

    • A dynamic, lifelong process.
    • 5% of bone remodeled at any given time.
    • Involves bone resorption (breakdown) and bone deposition (building).
    • Occurs during growth, injury, and with changes in exercise and diet.
    • Osteoclasts resorb bone, releasing minerals into the blood.
    • Osteoblasts deposit bone along lines of mechanical stress.

    Calcium Homeostasis

    • Bone stores 99% of the body's calcium.
    • Calcium is essential for nerve and muscle function, blood clotting, and enzyme activity.
    • Plasma calcium levels are tightly regulated between 9-11 mg/100 mL.
    • Low calcium levels can lead to heart and respiratory dysfunction.

    Fractures and Bone Repair

    • Fractures are breaks in bones.
    • Stress fractures are microscopic and do not damage surrounding tissues.
    • Compound fractures are large and damage surrounding tissues.
    • Fractures can be treated with closed reduction (setting) or open reduction (surgery).
    • Proper alignment of broken bone ends is crucial for healing.
    • Bone repair involves three phases: Reactive, reparative, and remodeling.

    Phases of Bone Repair

    • Reactive phase: Fracture hematoma forms, inflammation occurs.
    • Reparative phase: Fibrocartilaginous callus forms, followed by a bony callus.
    • Remodeling phase: Osteoclasts remove dead bone, compact bone replaces spongy bone.

    Bone Disorders

    • Osteoporosis: Loss of bone density with increased bone resorption.
    • Rickets and osteomalacia: Vitamin D deficiency affecting bone development and mineralization.
