Bone Physiology
bone-related hormones
growth hormone
stimulates liver to produce the hormone IGF, which causes cartilage proliferation at epiphyseal plate and resulting bone elongation
-
-
-
-
glucocorticoids
increases bone loss and, in children, impair bone growth when there are chronically high levels of glucocorids
serotonin
inhibits osteoprogenitor cells from differentiating into osteoblasts when there are chronically high levels of serotonin
bone fracture repair
-
-
-
the bone is remodeled
remodeling is final phase of fracture repair. The hard callus persists for at least 3 to 4 months, as osteoclasts remove excess bony material from both exterior and interior surfaces. Compact bone replaces primary bone. The fracture usually leaves a slight thickening of the bone.
bone growth
-
appositional growth
occurs within the periosteum. In this process, osteoblasts in the inner cellular layer of the periosteum produce and deposit bone matrix within layers parallel to the surface called external circumferential lamellae
