These cells arise in periosteum (postnatally in bone marrow) and are found in periosteum and endosteum
|
Osteoblasts
|
Bone-building cells that make and secrete collagen fibers and initiate calcification (appear as cuboidal cells on bone surface)
|
Osteoblasts
|
Terminally differentiated osteoblasts trapped by matrix secretion
|
Osteocytes
|
Mature bone cells that maintain bone tissue but no longer secrete matrix (appear as small oval cells in lacunae in matrix)
|
Osteocytes
|
Derived from fusion of several monocytes and concentrated in endosteum
|
Osteoclasts
|
Function in bone resorption (giant multinucleate cells with ruffled border)
|
Osteoclasts
|
Bone cells derived from mesenchyme
|
Osteoblasts and osteocytes
|
Includes collagen fibers and non-collagenous matrix proteins (1/3 of bone ECM)
|
Organic components
|
Provides bone with resilience and bility to resist stretching and twisting (does not resist compression)
|
Collagen
|
Contribute to compressive strength of bone
|
Proteoglycans
|
Glue bone cells/fibers to mineralized ground substance
|
Glycoproteins
|
Unmineralized bone matrix - contains collagen fibers, glycoproteins, proteoglycans
|
Osteoid
|
Make up 2/3 of ECM of bone; consist mainly of 2 mineral salts - calcium phosphate and calcium hydroxide
|
Inorganic components - resistant to compression!
|
Calcium phosphate and calcium hydroxide interact to produce....
|
Hydroxyapatite
|
2 types of glycoproteins:
1) mediates bone cell to matrix attachment
2) links collagen and bone minerals
|
1) osteopontin
2) osteonectin
