Study Notes

Bone Types

  • Long bones: found in limbs, important for movement
  • Short bones: found in the wrist and ankle
  • Flat bones: provide protection for organs
  • Irregular bones: various shapes, not easily categorized

Divisions of the Skeleton

  • Axial: the main structure of the thorax, important for protecting organs
  • Appendicular: limbs, used for movement

Bone Marrow

  • Components: blood vessels, nerves, other cells
  • Function: general principal cells of blood, stimulates bone formation, can lead to heterotopic ossification.
  • Location: found in most bones, except ossicles

Bone Marrow Changes with Age

  • Less red marrow, more yellow marrow

Trabecular Bone

  • Location: cuboidal, flat, ends of long bones
  • Function: distributes load and force throughout bones
  • Formation: formed through Endochondrial ossification
  • Porosity: 75%-90%

Cortical Bone

  • Location: shafts of long bones, around vertebral and spongy bone
  • Anatomy:
    • Osteons: circular formations
    • Haversian canals: longitudinal
    • Volkmann canals: horizontal channels
    • Resorption cavities: temporary hollow spaces
  • Porosity: 5-10%
  • Types:
    • Lamellar: slowly formed, highly organized
    • Woven: poorly organized
  • Primary bone: new bone in infants and adolescents; ring-like growth
  • Secondary bone: remodelled bone, includes osteons

Bone Tissue Composition

  • 43% Hydroxyapatite (HA)
  • 32% Collagen/organic
  • 25% Water

Bone Volume Fraction and Porosity

  • Trabecular: porosity > 0.5
  • Cortical: porosity < 0.5

Bone Apparent Density

  • Formula: (soft tissue mass + hard tissue mass)/(hard bone matrix volume + soft tissue volume)

Bone Ash Fraction

  • Mineralization of bone tissue (independent of porosity)
  • Components:
    • Dry mass (no water): organic matrix mass/mineral mass
    • Ash mass (no collagen): mineral mass
  • Formula: ma/md
  • Range: near 0.65

Osteoclasts

  • Similar to macrophages, cleave bone
  • Anatomy: multinucleated
  • Functioning: demineralize bone with acids, dissolving collagen

Osteoblasts

  • Similar to fibroblasts, build bone
  • Anatomy: mononuclear, formed from mesenchymal stem cells
  • Functioning: lays down osteoid (organic portion) very slowly

Osteocytes

  • Osteoblasts trapped in lacunae
  • Most abundant cell in bone
  • Functioning: mechanosensation, communication via canaliculi

Bone Lining Cells

  • Osteoblasts that escaped lacunae & are on bone surface
  • Become quiescent

Bone Modelling

  • Osteocytes and osteoblasts work separately in different areas
  • Function: changes in bone size and shape
  • Over time: increases most in development; impacted by P.A.

Bone Remodelling

  • Coupled actions of osteoblasts & osteoclasts in the same spot
  • Function: removes old & replaces with new bone
  • No change in size or shape
  • Efficient way to extract calcium
  • Decreases with age
