epiphyses of long bones is the connective articular cartilage. The compact bone is the supportive‚ protective shell that microscopically comprises of the periosteum on the superior surface and concentric circular osteons also known as Haversian Systems. The osteons are formed by concentric lamella‚ which are comprised of canaliculi. These are canal like structures that are used for communication.

Osteoporosis is a disease characterized by low bone density‚ which can lead to an increased risk of bone fractures1. Osteoporosis is closely linked to bone remodeling2‚ an adaptive process which maintains bone tissue integrity throughout one’s lifetime3. This process is carried out by specialized groups of bone cells known as basic multicellular units (BMUs) which dictate the processes of coupled bone breakdown and bone formation.3 During osteoporosis‚ this bone turnover rate accelerates and bone

Kyphosis also known as “hunchback” occurs when the vertebrae in the upper back are wedge shaped instead of cylinder. This disorder can be caused by a number of things such as: Osteoporosis‚ Disk Degeneration‚ slouching/poor posture etc… Kyphosis can happen at any age but it’s most common in older women. In addition to an abnormally curved spine the symptoms can also cause back pain and stiffness in some people. Mild cases of kyphosis may produce no noticeable signs or symptoms. Depending on what

In the early stages of the disease‚ bone loss occurs without symptoms. But once bones have been weak enough by osteoporosis‚ signs and symptoms may develop and include: • Back pain‚ caused by a fractured or collapsed vertebrae. • Loss of height over time. • A kyphotic posture. • A bone fracture that occurs much more easily than expected. Osteoporosis occurs in many people who have few or no risk factors for this condition. Often‚ patients do not report symptoms that would alert the clinician to

Osteoporosis causes bones to become weak & brittle due to low bone mass & bone tissue deterioration. Chronic & progressive Most common origin of bone disease in U.S. Fractures transpire easily. Primary cause of fractures in elderly. Bone formation should match bone resorption. Osteoblasts Build (form) new bone & generate organic matrix & mineralize bone. Osteoclasts Breaks down bone & cause bone resorption. Osteocytes Maintain bone by directing when/where bone remodeling is to occur. Parathyroid

Osteogenesis Imperfecta: Brittle Bone Disease Sami Gizara Lakeland High School Honors Biology Block 6 March 10‚ 2013 Current Applications in Science Abstract (Summary and Background) Osteogenesis Imperfecta was a severe‚ congenital genetic disorder which can cause the human bones to be extremely delicate. This disease is caused by a mutation(whether it be deletion or duplication) in chromosome 17q21‚ 31-q22‚ 7q22.1‚ which are the chromosomes that help the body produce the proteins

BONE FRACTURES A fracture is a complete or incomplete break in a bone resulting from the application of excessive force. A bone fracture is a medical condition in which there is a break in the continuity of the bone. They are injuries of bone tissue‚ which compromise their ability to support the body. It can be the result of high force impact or stress‚ or trivial injury as a result of certain medical conditions that weaken the bones‚ such as osteoporosis‚ bone cancer‚ or osteogenesis imperfecta
