Bone Remodeling01:40

Bone Remodeling

38.0K
Bone remodeling is a continuous and balanced process of bone resorption by osteoclasts and bone formation by osteoblasts. In adults, it helps maintain bone mass and calcium homeostasis. While mechanical stress can stimulate turnover as part of the normal maintenance and reparative process, several hormones also regulate bone remodeling.

Osteoclasts in Bone Remodeling01:31

Osteoclasts in Bone Remodeling

2.8K
Osteoclasts are cells responsible for bone resorption and remodeling. They originate from hematopoietic progenitor cells present in the bone marrow. Numerous progenitor cells fuse to form multinucleated cells, each with 10-20 nuclei. A single osteoclast has a diameter of 150 to 200 µM. These cells have ruffled borders that break down the underlying bone tissue and release minerals such as calcium into the blood in bone resorption. Osteoclasts cling to bones with their ruffled edges during...

Bone Formation by Endochondral Ossification01:24

Bone Formation by Endochondral Ossification

3.5K
Bone formation, or ossification, begins around the sixth to seventh week of embryonic development. Most bones develop from a cartilaginous template through the process of endochondral ossification. Cartilage formation begins when clusters of mesenchymal cells differentiate into chondrocytes. These chondrocytes proliferate rapidly and secrete an extracellular matrix that becomes encased in a membrane called the perichondrium. The resulting cartilage model provides a template that resembles the...

Masonry in Cold and Hot Weather Conditions01:21

Masonry in Cold and Hot Weather Conditions

69
In cold weather, masonry construction requires specific precautions to ensure mortar does not freeze before curing, as this can significantly weaken its strength and watertightness. Mortar temperature should be maintained between 60°F and 80°F to support proper hydration and curing. Below 40°F, mortar water must be heated, but should not exceed 120°F as high temperatures can reduce mortar's compressive and bond strength.
Other key practices include keeping masonry units...

Bone Disorders01:29

Bone Disorders

3.4K
Aging and its effect on bone remodeling is the most common cause of bone disorders. In young and healthy people, bone deposition and resorption happen at an equal rate to maintain optimal bone health.
Bone deposition is also affected by the levels of sex hormones like estrogen and testosterone that promote osteoblast activity and bone matrix synthesis. When the level of these hormones decreases due to aging, it causes a reduction in bone deposition. As a result, bone resorption by osteoclasts...

Bone Structure01:55

Bone Structure

47.8K
Within the skeletal system, the structure of a bone, or osseous tissue, can be exemplified in a long bone, like the femur, where there are two types of osseous tissue: cortical and cancellous.

Area of Science:

  • Bone Biology
  • Skeletal Physiology
  • Environmental Medicine

Background:

  • Cold environments pose risks to individuals in cold climates, polar regions, and winter sports.
  • Understanding bone remodeling in cold conditions is crucial for preventing skeletal issues.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate the effects of cold environments on bone structure, mass, biomechanics, and the skeletal microenvironment.
  • To elucidate the cellular and molecular mechanisms underlying cold-induced bone changes.

Main Methods:

  • Review of existing literature on cold exposure and bone physiology.
  • Analysis of cellular responses, including bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) and osteoblasts (OBs).
  • Examination of molecular pathways (e.g., p38 MAPK, VEGF) and systemic factors (e.g., sympathetic nerves, leptin).

Main Results:

  • Cold exposure reduces bone length, thickness, and bone mineral density (BMD), leading to bone loss.
  • Cold affects BMSCs proliferation and osteogenic differentiation, alters OBs and endothelial cells (ECs), and influences marrow adipose tissue (MAT).
  • Cold inhibits angiogenesis and bone growth via factors like PDGF-BB, SLIT3, Notch, and VEGF, while potentially increasing bone resorption.

Conclusions:

  • Cold environments induce detrimental changes in bone, including reduced formation and increased resorption.
  • Molecular pathways and the skeletal microenvironment are significantly impacted by cold exposure.
  • Further research is needed to understand and mitigate cold-related bone damage.
