BONES
Bone Diseases
*Osteomyelitis
Pathogens
almost all infections are Staph. Aureous (strains)
Other Bacteria
salmonella after sickle cell disease
Pseudamonas aeruginosa
Staphylococcus Aureus
most common cause of infection
Etiology By Age
less than or greater than 30
think that by 30 your bones are fully developed
Age <30
growing bones
Signs and Symptoms
child/adolescent cardinal signs:
--> limp
--> raised C reactive protein
--> fever
Epiphysial plate
where there is still bone growth
most susceptible to infection
Age >30
growing bones
Diaphysis
Notes:
sequestrum = necrosis of bone due to devscularization
bones are mostly closed system
--> infection raised pressure
--> thrombosis and infarction
Treatment
anti-staph. Aereus
penicillins
--> flucoxacillin
kill off infection and reduce pressure in the bone
Diagnosis
C reactive protein raised
MRI --> shows early signs
X-ray --> shows later signs
Clinical Cases
Clinical Case
Clinical Case
Notes
:
note that
Septic Arthritis
*OSteomalacia = Rickets (in kids)
poorly formed and WEAK bones from
Vitamin D deficient
/ high PTH /
low Phosphate
--> poor mineralization of bones
RIDCKETS
RIDCKETS
D = Deficient D vitamin = main cause of ricket's (= osteomalacia in adults)
Clinical Cases
Clinical Case
Notes
:
note that
Clinical Case
Osteomalacia
Notes
:
Osteomalacia primarily affects osteoid bone
--> OSTEO-
osteoid is the organic portion of bone that is initially laid down by osteoblasts
inorganic calcium and phosphate are then added to the osteoid to make mature lamellar bone
--> osteoid laid down --> spongy bone --> lamellar bone
ostrteomalacia vs. osteoporosis
osteoporosis does not have pain in the bones, where osteomalacia DOES
osteoporosis has normal mineralization of bones, where osteomalacia DONES NOT
osteoporosis is more due to incorrect ratio of osteoclast to osteoblast activity
--> excessive bone reabsorption
--> more risk of fractures
Case example:
*Degenerative Diseases of Bone
Osteoporosis
OSteomalaia
Paget's
*Paget's Disease
ends with HIGHER bone density
--> 3/4 stages of Pagets
PAGETS disease -->
"Beauty PAGENTS wear BIG HATS"
disregulation of RANK/OPG ratio leads to the different stages of Paget's disease
tx of paget's disease = Bisphosphonates
3 distinct phases of Paget's Disease
1 = Osteoclast phase
2 = Mixed Clast / Blast stage
3 = Blast phase
*Bisphosphonates
tx for osteoporosis, Paget's disease, osteogenesis imperfecta (DOMINANT human hunters)
pyrophosphate analogs --> attach to bone
osteoclasts then degrade them
--> makes toxic ATP like molecules in the osteoclasts
--> apoptosis in osteoclasts and lower bone turnover
Side effects of bisphosphonates
Bisphosphonate esophagitis
this is simply becasue the tablets are way too huge
--> note they can be given by IM
this is the reason you have to be sitting upright for 30 minutes when taking them
--> you must also take them with a full glass of water to stop esophagitis
Bisphosphonate fractures and bone necrosis
since bisphosphonates are causing apoptosis in CLASTS
--> you dont have a good ability to remodel bone anymore
so in some people they can get stress fractures and necrosis of their bones
--> especially the jaw = mandible and maxillary bones

RANK/OPG ratio
leads to the different stages of Paget's disease
HIGH RANK/OPG ratio = high CLAST activity
LOWRANK/OPG ratio = high BLAST activity
Clinical presentation of PAGETS disease
normal calcium, phosphate levels, but ALK PHOSPH is high
BEAUTY PAGETS DISEASE has 3 PHASES of competition
--> 3 phases of Pagets disease
Phase 1 of PAGETS disease = the HAT competition where CRAMER is the Judge
large HAT size in Pagets disease
CRAMER = CLASTS are phase 1 of Pagets
Phase 2 of PAGETS disease = MOSAIC dress competition where 3 judges are = ALP skier, Calcitonin cow, PTH
MOSAIC dress = phase 2 = mixed CLASTS / BLAST stage
--> also in the final stage you get mosaic lamellar modelling
Calcitonin and PTH are NORMAL in PAGETS
ALP = only thing raised in PAGETS disease
Phase 3 of PAGETS disease = High heels competition where you break your tibia since you can't hear the bisphosphonate bike that runs over your foot and breaks it
tx of PAGETS = bisphosphonates
can't hear in PAGETS due to your Ossicle bones being too large
*Osteoporosis
lowered bone density
HIGH ratio of osteoclast / Blast and low ratio OPG/RANKL on osteoblasts
--> low levels of estrogen post menopause
--> estrogen normally activates OPG = osteoproginator
--> recall blasts release OPG actively to self inhibit and controls their own RANKL that activates the clasts
DEXA
scan for bone density
greater than -1.5 DEXA density = normal bone density
less than -1.5 DEXA density = osteopenia
--> stage right before osteoporosis
less than -2.5 DEXA density = diagnosis of osteoporosis
osteo can be drug induced
*Drugs that increase osteoporosis risk
AEDs that increase CYP
--> also increase Vitamin D metabolism
ANY drug that increases estrogen
--> aromatase inhibitors for ER+ breast cancer
--> GnRH agonists that kill off
Risk factors for osteoporosis
divide into modifiable risk factors and NON modifiable
note that peak bone mass reached at 30
--> from there it is trying to maintain it
Treatment for osteoporosis
bisphosphonates = integrate into bone
--> when CLASTS resorb bone
--> causes apoptosis
PATHO PHYS of osteoporosis
loss of the trabecular = spongy bone = framework
--> Trabecular bone only makes the framework of bone and the cortical fills in the rest

Bone *Structure and Anatomy
Bone Formation Histology
Notes
:
bone is first laid down as "woven" type of immature bone
woven bone matures into lamellar bone
Lamellar bone is affected in Paget's disease, but not in osteoporosis or osteomalacia
Osteocytes and Mature Bone
Osteocyte Communication through Gap Junctions
Notes
:
note although osteoblasts and osteoclasts are responsible for bone remodelling, don't think of osteocytes as just trapped cells in the lamellar layers that are doing nothing
because the blasts and clasts are busy with remodelling bone, the osteocytes are responsible for maintaining the proper calcium and phosphate in the bone
they are in the layers of mature lamellar layers bone that surround the central Haversian Cannals = artery system inside bones
the osteocytes get their nutrients from the Haversian central artery canal through a system of canniculus = smaller arteries that join the lacuna of each osteocyte
the osteocytes actually communicate to each other through gap junctions
--> think of osteocytes as the same as muscle cells in that to properly maintain the calcium in the bone they need to communicate through gap junctions
Example
:
*Remodelling and synthesis of Bone
-
Osteoblasts and Osteoclasts
CLASTS = bone resorption
BALASTS = lay down new bone and regulate the CLASTS
*PTH and calcitonin - Parathyroid control of Ca++ and PO4
calcitonin = TONES DOWN Ca++
PTH = opposite to calcitonin = PHOSPHATE TRASHING HORMONE
note that Vit D 1,25 = calcitriol active form
--> made in the kidneys
--> previous forms are in the liver
*RANK - RANK-L and OPG
OPG / RANK-L ratio = OPG Osteo BLAST Generation
RANK
= receptor activator NF Kappa B
--> on OsteoCLASTS
RANK- L
= RANK ligand
--> made by BOTH Blasts and CLasts
OPG
= OSTEO BLAST GENERATOR ligand
--> OPG binds RANK and blocks RANK-L
--> OPG blocks it and inhibits RANK differentiation
OPG = Osteoprotegerin = OPG GEN-DEN
--> estrogen stimulates its production
"OPG GEN-DEN"
= OPG Generator
--> GEN-DEN = Denosumab Mab used for osteoporosis to replace the OPG lost by low estrogen
*PTH - calcitonin - OPG RANK regulation
PARATHYROID GLANDS
parathyroid Hormone (PTH)
increases Ca2+ and PO4- levels
--> by stimulating osteoclasts to break down bone
