Tissues of the Skeletal System
• Bone is a highly vascularized C.T. with a hard, mineralized
extracellular matrix. It is found in the body in two different
arrangements:
• Compact bone – 80% of bone in skeleton
• Spongy bone - 20% of bone in skeleton
• is seen as
Compact Bone
• Most rigid connective
tissue
• Continuous, solid
extracellular matrix
found between cells
• Matrix composed of
mineral salts and
collagen
• Hardness due to mineral
salts in matrix
• Collagen provides
strength and resilience
Spongy Bone
• Made of Bony plates
called trabeculae
• Space between
trabeculae filled with red
bone marrow
• Found in flat bones
between sheets of
compact bone
• Found in epiphyses of
long bones
• Spongy bone reduces a
bone’s weight
Long Bone Structure
• Epiphysis - Expanded ends of a long bone, articulates
with other bones
• Articular cartilage (hyaline cartilage) on outer surface
• Composed of mostly spongy (cancellous) bone surrounded by
thin layers of compact bone
• Red bone marrow with
Hematopoietic stem cells
located here
Hyaline cartilage is the
articular cartilage of
this long bone
Long Bone Structure
• Diaphysis – shaft of bone
• Central medullary cavity
• Hollow tube in diaphysis filled with
yellow marrow
• Medullary Cavity is lined by
endosteum
• Osteoclasts located in endosteum
• Metaphysis – region between
diaphysis and epiphysis
• Growth plate here
Lone Bone Structure
• The medullary cavity is a space
within the diaphysis of long bones
that contains fatty yellow bone
marrow in adults.
• The endosteum is a membrane that
lines the medullary cavity .
• The endosteum is composed of
osteoclasts, osteoblasts, and
connective tissue.
• Nutrient foramen – canal where vessels
enter/exit a bone
Long Bone Structure
• The periosteum is a tough sheath of dense, irregular
connective tissue on the outside of the bone.
• It contains osteoblasts that
help the bone grow in thickness,
but not in length.
• Continuous with tendons and ligaments
• It also assists with fracture repair
Chemical Constituents of Bone
• Bone is 15% water, 30% organic proteins, 55% mineral salts
(hydroxyapatite crystals).
• Organic constituents
• Collagen fibers provide flexibility and tensile strength.
• Inorganic hydroxyapatite crystals (mineral salts)
• Calcium Phosphate (Ca3PO4)2
• Calcium Carbonate (CaCO3 – marble)
• Other trace elements: magnesium, fluoride, sulfate
Bone Cells
Osteogenic Stem Cell
Osteoclasts
• Derived from mesenchyme
• Forms osteoblasts
•Bone breakdown
(resorption)
• Only Mitotic bone cell
Osteoblasts
•Bone forming cells,
deposit bony matrix
around themselves
Osteocytes
• matured osteoblasts
•Completely surrounded by bony
matrix
•Carries out daily cellular activities
Histology of Bone Tissue
• Compact bone is composed of repeating structural
units called Osteons or Haverisan Systems
• Osteons have concentric circles of matrix called
lamellae surrounding a Central (Haversian) canal
• Blood vessels and nerves here
• Osteoblast cells mature into
Osteocytes after matrix is
laid down
Histology of Bone Tissue
• Lacunae spaces in osetons hosue osteocytes
• Canaliculi – small channels that connect lacunae of
osteocytes
• Nutrient and waste transport
• Gap junctions for communication
• Perforating (Volkmann’s) canals – transverse canals
that connect vessels of central (Haversian) canals
Haversian System of Compact Bone
Blood and Nerve Supply of Bone
• Bone is richly supplied with blood; Periosteal
arteries and veins supply the periosteum and
compact bone.
• Nerves accompany the blood
vessels
• The periosteum is rich in
sensory nerves sensitive to
tearing or tension
Bone Formation
• Ossification or osteogenesis is the process of
forming new bone. Bone formation occurs in four
situations:
• Formation of bone in an embryo
• Growth of bones until adulthood
• Remodeling of bone
• Repair of fractures
Bone Formation
• Osteogenesis occurs by two different methods,
beginning about the 6th week of embryonic
development.
• Intra-membranous ossification produces
spongy bone.
• This bone may subsequently be remodeled to form
compact bone.
• Endochondral ossification is a process
whereby cartilage is replaced by bone.
• Forms both compact and spongy bone.
Bone Formation
• Intra-membranous ossification is the simpler of
the two methods.
• It is used in forming the flat bones of the skull, mandible,
and clavicle.
• Bone forms from mesenchymal cells that develop within a
membrane – without going through a cartilage stage
• Many ossification centers.
Intramembranous Bone Formation
Bone Formation
• Endochondral ossification is the method used in
the formation of most bones, especially long bones.
• It involves replacement of hyaline cartilage bone models.
• There are one primary and two secondary centers of
growth.
Endochondral Bone Formation
Bone Formation
• Ossification contributing to bone length is usually complete
by 18-21 years of age.
• Bones can still continue to thicken and are capable of repair
even after the epiphyseal growth plates have closed.
Bone Structure
• In adolescents, through the end
of active growth, the epiphysis
of the long bones contains
hyaline cartilage and forms an
“epiphyseal growth plate”.
• The growth plate is always
actively dividing causing the
bone to elongate from each end.
Bone Structure
• In adults, the epiphyseal
cartilage is no longer present
and elongation of bones has
stopped.
• The epiphyseal growth plate
becomes an “epiphyseal line”,
as growing cartilage is
replaced by calcified bone.
Epiphyseal plates
Long Bone Growth at Epiphyseal Plate
• 4 zones of cartilage at epiphyseal plate
• Zone of Resting cells
• Closest to epiphysis, don’t participate in growth, anchors plate to
bony tissue of epiphysis
• Zone of Mitotic cells
• Rows of many cells undergoing mitosis
• As ECM forms around cartilage thickens
• Zone of Hypertrophic cells
• Older cells enlarge and thicken plate, lengthening bone
• Calcifying older cells begin to die
• Zone of Calcified cartilage
• Thin layer of dead cartilage
• Osteoblasts lay down bone to replace calcified cartilage
Articular cartilage

(c) Lengthwise growth of bone at epiphyseal plate
Long Bone Growth at Epiphyseal Plate
• 2 MAJOR EVENTS
1. New cartilage cells are produced by mitosis at
epiphyseal end of plate
2. Replacement of cartilage with bone on diaphyseal end
of plate by endochondral ossification
• Epiphyseal plate temporarily increases in width
• Bones continue to lengthen until ossification centers
meet and the epiphyseal plate ossifies under control of
sex hormones at end of puberty
Growth At Epiphyseal Plate
Bone Growth in Thickness:
Appositional Growth
• A bone thickens as Compact bone is deposited below
the periosteum
• Osteoclasts will resorb (break down) bone on the
inside to form the medullary cavity
• The diaphysis of a long bone grows in thickness on
the outside while the medullary cavity is enlarged on
the inside
Bone Growth & Remodeling
• Ongoing process that includes bone resorption by
osteoclasts and deposition of bone by osteoblasts
• Opposing processes
• Total mass of bone in skeleton remains constant
• At any one time, 5% of total bone mas is being
remodeled
Factors affecting Bone Development,
Growth & Repair
• Normal bone growth depends on several
factors:
• Nutrition
• Hormonal secretions
• Physical exercise
Nutritional Requirements for Bone
Development
• Vitamin A
• Required for normal osteoblast and osteoclast activity during
normal development
• Vitamin C
• Required for collagen synthesis
• Vitamin D
• Promotes calcium absorption in the small intestines
Factors affecting Bone Development,
Growth & Repair
• Physical stress from exercise
• Stimulates bone growth (deposition)
• Lack of exercise makes bones atrophy
(weaker) and thinner
• Loss of bone mass
Hormones affecting Normal Bone
Growth
• Thyroid Hormones
• Secreted by the thyroid gland
• Stimulates osteoblasts
• Deficiency:
• Stunted growth
Hormones affecting Normal Bone
Growth
• Sex hormones: Estrogen and Testosterone
• Promote formation of bone tissue
• Abundant at puberty, stimulate long bone growth
• Growth Spurt
• Estrogen effect stronger than testosterone
• Responsible for closing epiphyseal plates
• Widening of female pelvis
Hormone Requirements for Bone
Development
• Growth hormone – secreted from the anterior
pituitary gland
• Regulates overall body growth
• IGFs released from liver and bone in response to
GH
• Stimulates division of cartilage cells in epiphyseal
plates during growing years and stimulates growth in
thickness
• Role in metabolism (discussed in Endocrine
System)
Growth Hormone Disorders
• Pituitary Dwarfism
• Pituitary gigantism
• Acromegaly
Growth Hormone Deficiency
• Pituitary Dwarfism
• GH deficiency in children
• Short stature from retarded skeletal growth
• Normal body proportions
Growth Hormone Excess
• Acromegaly
• GH excess in adulthood
• Bones become thicker & soft tissues proliferate
• Disfuguring
Growth Hormone Excess
• Pituitary Gigantism
• GH excess in
childhood before
epiphyseal plates have
closed
• Rapid growth in height
Blood Calcium Homeostasis
• Bone is the body’s major calcium reserve, storing
99% of calcium
• Inorganic salts in matrix of bone composed
mostly of calcium phosphate and calcium
carbonate
• Calcium required for blood clot formation, nerve
impulse conduction and muscle cell contraction
• Calcium homeostasis maintained by three
hormones:
• Parathyroid hormone
• Calcitonin
• Vitamin D
Blood Calcium Homeostasis
• Parathyroid Hormone
• Secreted by parathyroid glands in response to low
blood calcium
• Stimulates osteoclast activity = Bone resorption
• Secrete acids and enzymes that dissolve inorganic
mineral matrix of bone
• Releases calcium and phosphorous into the blood
Parathyroid Hormone
• Other PTH targets:
• Osteoclasts – Bone resorption
• Kidneys
• Reabsorb calcium during urine formation
• Secrete phosphate during urine formation
• Intestines
• Increases calcium absorption through activation of
Vitamin D regulation
• This is necessary for the intestines to absorb Ca++
• Functions to increase the calcium concentration of
the plasma (also increases concentration of
phosphate)
Blood Calcium Homeostasis
• Vitamin D
• Necessary for proper absorption of calcium in the
small intestines
• Lack of vitamin D decreases calcium absorption in
small intestines
• Decreases calcium content in bone matrix, making bones
soft and deformed
• Rickets in children
• Osteomalacia in adults
• Derivative of Cholesterol is converted by sunlight to
Vitamin D
Blood Calcium Homeostasis
• Calcitonin
• Released from thyroid gland in response to high
levels of blood calcium
• Inhibits osteoclast activity
• Stimulates osteoblasts to form bone tissue
• Stimulates the kidneys to secrete calcium
• Functions to decrease plasma calcium
concentration
