Development of bone

2. General overview: Bone
 Specialized connective tissue
 Components of bone:
 Cell:osteogenic
cell,osteoblast,osteocytes,osteoclast
 Fibres:collagen type –I
 Ground substanse:chondroital sulphate,keratin
sulfate and glycoprotein
 Minerals:calcium phosphate,hydroxy apatite
crystal of calcium phosphate

3. Formation of bone:
 Mesodermal in origin
 Formed by process of ossification
a. Endochondrial ossification(cartilagenous
model)
b. Intramembranous ossification(membranous
model)

4. Law of ossification:
 secondary center which appears first unites
last with diaphysis and secondary center
which appears last unites first with diaphysis
 Exception: Fibula
 Primary center forms diaphysis whereas
secondary center forms epiphysis

5. 1.Endochondrial ossification:
 Begins at second month of embryonic
development
 Hyaline cartilage is subsequently replaced by
bone
 Leads to Growth in length and width of bone
 Bones formed are known as cartilage bones
 Formation of short and long bones.

6. Steps in endochondrial
ossification:
1.cartilageneous model 2. Formation of areolae:

7. Stages of Endochondrial
ossification:
3.Calcification of matrix: 4.Formation of areolae:

8. Endochondrial
ossification:formation of bony
lamellae

9. Structural unit of bone:
Lamellae

10. Primary center of ossification:

11. Secondary center of
ossification:

12. Growth of bone in length:

13. Increase in thickness of long
bone:

14. Intramembranous ossification:
 Mesenchymal cells directly converts to
osteoblasts with capillaries in center of
ossification
 Mostly forms flat bones
 e.g: formation of mandible, maxilla, clavicle
and most of flat bones of skull
 Begins at 8th week of development

19. Hormonal regulation of bone
formation:
1) Human growth hormone:
 Bone growth before puberty
2) Sex hormones(testosterone and estrogen)
 Development of typical male and female
shaped skeleton after puberty.
3)Parathyroid hormones:release of calcitonin

20. Clinical Anatomy:
 Dyschondroplasia or enchondromatosis
 Achondroplasia
 diaphyseal aclasis
 Osteogenesis imperfecta
 Cleido-cranial dysostosis
 Fibrous dysplasia
 Osteosclerosis
 Dwarfism
 gigantism
