The Skeletal System (Bones and Joints) Anatomy & Physiology I Chapter 7 Bone as a Tissue osteology – the study of bone skeletal system - composed of bones, joints, cartilages, and ligaments ◦ form strong flexible framework of the body ◦ cartilage – forerunner of most bones covers many joint surfaces of mature bone ligaments – hold bones together at the joints tendons – attach muscle to bone Functions of the Skeleton support – hold the body up, supports muscles, mandible and maxilla support teeth protection – brain, spinal cord, heart, lungs movement – limb movements, breathing, action of muscle on bone electrolyte balance – calcium and phosphate ions acid-base balance – buffers blood against excessive pH changes blood formation – red bone marrow is the chief producer of blood cells 7-3 Bones and Osseous Tissue bone (osseous tissue) - connective tissue with the matrix hardened by calcium phosphate and other minerals mineralization or calcification – the hardening process of bone individual bones consist of bone tissue, bone marrow, cartilage, adipose tissue, nervous tissue, and fibrous connective tissue continually remodels itself and interacts physiologically with all of the other organ systems of the body permeated with nerves and blood vessels, which attests to its sensitivity and metabolic activity 7-4 The Matrix of Bone matrix of osseous tissue is, by dry weight, about one-third organic and two-thirds inorganic matter organic matter – synthesized by osteoblasts ◦ collagen, carbohydrate – protein complexes, such as proteoglycans and glycoproteins inorganic matter ◦ 85% calcium phosphate (hydroxyapatite) ◦ 10% calcium carbonate ◦ other minerals (fluoride, sodium, potassium, magnesium) bone is a composite – combination of two basic structural materials, a ceramic and a polymer ◦ combines optimal mechanical properties of each component ◦ bone combines the polymer, collagen, with the ceramic, hydroxyapatite and other minerals ◦ ceramic portion allows the bone to support the body weight, and protein portion gives bone some degree of flexibility rickets – soft bones due to deficiency of calcium salts osteogenesis imperfecta or brittle bone disease – excessively brittle bones due to lack of protein, collagen Bone Structure Types of osseous (bone) tissue Compact bone -

produces blood cells and is composed of multiple tissues in a delicate, but intricate arrangement that is an organ to itself ◦ in adults, found in skull, vertebrae, ribs, sternum, part of pelvic girdle, and proximal heads of humerus and femur yellow marrow found in adults ◦ most red marrow turns into fatty yellow marrow ◦ no longer produces blood Location of Hematopoietic Tissue (Red Marrow) Red marrow cavities of adults ◦ Trabecular cavities of the heads of the femur and humerus ◦ Trabecular cavities of the diploë of flat bones Red marrow of newborn infants ◦ Medullary cavities and all spaces in spongy bone Microscopic Anatomy of Bone Cells of bones ◦ Osteogenic (osteoprogenitor) cells – give rise to osteoblasts Stem cells in periosteum, endosteum and central canals ◦ Osteoblasts – manufacture bone matrix Bone-forming cells ◦ Osteocytes – maintain and repair existing bone matrix Mature bone cells ◦ Osteoclasts – breakdown (resorb) bone matrix Cells that break down and release minerals from bone matrix Microscopic Anatomy of Bone: Compact Bone Haversian system, or osteon—structural unit ◦ Lamellae Weight-bearing Column-like matrix tubes ◦ Central (Haversian) canal Contains blood vessels and nerves Compact bone tissue Microscopic Anatomy of Bone: Compact Bone Perforating (Volkmann’s) canals ◦ At right angles to the central canal ◦ Connects blood vessels and nerves of the periosteum and central canal Lacunae—small cavities that contain osteocytes Canaliculi—hairlike canals that connect lacunae to each other and the central canal Compact Bone Compact bone Central (Haversian) canal Spongy bone Perforating (Volkmann’s) canal Endosteum lining bony canals and covering trabeculae Osteon (Haversian system) Circumferential lamellae Perforating (Sharpey’s) fibers Lamellae Nerve Vein Artery Canaliculi Osteocyte in a lacuna Periosteal blood vessel Periosteum Lamellae Central canal Lacunae Lacuna (with osteocyte) Interstitial lamellae Compact Bone Nerve Vein Artery Canaliculus Osteocyte in a lacuna Lamellae Central canal Lacunae Hormonal Regulation of Bone Growth Growth hormone stimulates epiphyseal plate activity Thyroid hormone modulates activity of growth hormone Testosterone and estrogens (at puberty) ◦ Promote adolescent growth spurts ◦ End growth by inducing epiphyseal plate closure Bone Deposit Occurs where bone is injured or added strength is needed Requires a diet rich in protein; vitamins C, D, and A; calcium; phosphorus; magnesium; and manganese Bone Resorption Osteoclasts secrete ◦ Lysosomal enzymes (digest organic matrix) ◦ Acids (convert calcium salts into soluble forms) Dissolved matrix is transcytosed across osteoclast, enters interstitial fluid and then blood Control of Remodeling What controls continual remodeling of bone? ◦ Hormonal mechanisms that maintain calcium homeostasis in the blood ◦ Mechanical and gravitational forces Hormonal Control of Blood Ca2+ The level of blood calcium (Ca2+) must be maintained (homeostasis) Calcium is necessary for ◦ ◦ ◦ ◦ ◦ Transmission of nerve impulses Muscle contraction Blood coagulation Secretion by glands and nerve cells Cell division Which hormones are responsible for maintaining blood calcium? Hormonal Control of Blood Ca2+ Primarily controlled by parathyroid hormone (PTH) Blood Ca2+ levels Parathyroid glands release PTH PTH stimulates osteoclasts to degrade bone matrix and release Ca2+ Blood Ca2+ levels When blood calcium levels fall, PTH is released causing blood calcium levels to increase. Hormonal Control of Blood Ca2+ May be affected to a lesser extent by calcitonin Blood Ca2+ levels Parafollicular cells of thyroid release calcitonin Osteoblasts deposit calcium salts Blood Ca2+ levels When blood calcium levels rise, calcitonin is released causing blood calcium levels to decrease.
