Microscopic Anatomy of Bone
Osteon (Haversian System) Structural unit of bone Central (Haversian) canal Opening in the center of an osteon Carries bld. Vessels, lymphatic vessels, and nerves Volkman’s (Perforating) canal Canal perpendicular to the central canal Carries blood vessels and nerves Slide 5.10a Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings
9
Types of Bone Cells Osteoblasts – bone building cells
Osteocytes – bone maintaining cells Osteoclasts – bone remodeling cells (remove bone; resorption) Slide 5.2 Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings

Microscopic Anatomy of Bone
Canaliculi Radiate from the central canal to lacunae Tiny canals that connect lacunae to haversian canal Form a transport system Figure 5.3 Slide 5.11b Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings
13
Bone Development (Osteogenesis/Ossification)
Embryonic Development – skeletal system => fibrous membrane called hyaline cartilage In young children – cartilage is replaced by bone. Types of Ossification: Intramembranous ossification Bone forms from a fibrous membrane to form membrane bone; occurs during embryonic development forms flat bones, and some irregular bones including bones of skull and clavicles Slide 5.13a
14
Bone Development (Osteogenesis/Ossification)
Endochondrial ossification bone forms from hyaline cartilage to form cartilage bone occurs during 3rd month of embryonic development by birth most hyaline cartilage-> bone except for 2 regions: 1. Articular cartilage 2.Epiphyseal plate
15
Bone Development Appositional Growth (thickness/diameter)
Osteoblasts secrete bony matrix on external surface of bone (periosteum) Osteoclasts destroy bone on the endosteal surface of compact bone. Slide 5.13a
16
Bone Growth - longitudinally
Hyaline cartilage of epiphyseal plates grow by mitosis of the cell on the proximal face. Hyaline cartilage at the distal face of plate (towards medullary cavity) mature and die, and matrix calcifies; osteoblasts invade to form spongy bone -> compact bone
17
Long bone growth is regulated by hormones:
1. growth hormone produced in pituitary gland 2. sex hormones produced by ovaries and testes secreted during puberty and end during adolescence when epiphyseal plates are converted to bone (males – testosterone females – estrogen)
18
Bone Fractures - a break in a bone
Types of bone fractures Closed (simple) fracture – break that does not penetrate the skin Open (compound) fracture – broken bone penetrates through the skin Bone fractures are treated by reduction and immobilization Realignment of the bone Slide 5.16 Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings
19
Common Types of Fractures
Table 5.2 Slide 5.17 Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings
20
Repair of Bone Fractures
Formation of a Hematoma (blood-filled swelling) Break is splinted by fibrocartilage to form a callus Fibrocartilage callus is replaced by a bony callus Bony callus is remodeled in response to mechanical stress to fracture to form a permanent patch
21

22
Parathyroid hormone (PTH)
Bones are remodeled continually in response to 2 factors: 1. Pull of gravity and muscles on skeleton. 2. Ca++ levels in blood If blood Ca , then Parathyroid hormone (PTH) activates Osteoclasts breaksdown bone matrix and releases Ca++ ions If blood Ca++ , then Calcitonin (Thyroid gland) activates Osteoblasts deposits Ca++ ions into bone matrix
23
Bone Markings Surface features of bones
Sites of attachments for muscles, tendons, and ligaments Passages for nerves and blood vessels Categories of bone markings Projections and processes – grow out from the bone surface Depressions or cavities – indentations Slide 5.9 Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings

Joints Articulations of bones Functions of joints
● Hold bones together ● Allow for mobility Ways joints are classified Function - Movement Immovable joints – synarthrosis (sutures) Slightly movable joints – ampiarthrosis Freely movable joints – diarthrosis (synovial joints) Structure Fibrious joints – immovable joints = synarthrosis Cartilaginous joints –Ampiarthrosis = slightly moveable Synovial joints – diarthrosis = freely movable
40
Fibrous Joints = synarthrosis
Bones united by fibrous tissue Examples Sutures Syndesmoses Allows more movement than sutures Example: distal end of tibia and fibula Figure 5.27d, e Slide 5.46 Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings

Cartilaginous Joints Bones connected by cartilage
Examples of Synarthrosis Epiphyseal plate Verterbrae between ribs & sternum Examples of ampiarthrosis Pubic symphysis Intervertebral joints Figure 5.27b, c Slide 5.47
42
Synovial Joints General structure:
Articular cartilage – acts as a lubricant joint cavity filled w/Synovial fluid Articular capsule – fibrious CT Reinforcement ligament Figure 5.27f–h Slide 5.48
43
Types of Synovial Joints Based on Shape
1. non-axial joints – found/located where bones are flat or slightly curved; allowed for only slipping movements betweeen bones (joints of wrist)
44
Types of Synovial Joints Based on Shape
2. uniaxial joints – movement of bone in only 1 plane Ex: pivot joint, hinge joint
45
Types of Synovial Joints Based on Shape
3. biaxial joints – move in 2 planes Ex: condyloid joints, saddle joints
46
Types of Synovial Joints Based on Shape
4. multiaxial joints – moves in all planes Ex: ball and socket joints
