  4. __ upregulates OB
    Estrogen
  5. __ & __ expressed during late stages of OB differentiation
    • osteocalcin
    • osteopontin
  6. Describe blood supply to bone
    • Outer 1/3: periosteal arteries
    • Inner 2/3: nutrient arteries
  7. Which enzyme helps create Howship's Lacunae?
    carbonic anhydrase
  8. OC stain for ___
    tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase

    • Intermittent dosing
    • Continuous dosing
  12. Origin of calcitonin?
    clear cells of thyroid

    - life span?
    - stains for __?
    - location?
    • - decades
    • - OC-specific monoclonal Ab
    • - in lacunae within mineralized matrix of both cortical and lamellar bone
  15. Process of downregulating OC stimulation?
    OPG binds to rank-L (on OB), which blocks rank-L to rank (on OC precursor)

    • Type I postmenopausal: trabecular bone, distal radius & vertebral fxs
    • Type II senile: trabecular & corticla bone, hip & pelvis fxs, uncoupling of bone formation and resorption
  22. Painful hip, MRI with DIFFUSE osteoporosis. Dx? Tx? Px?
    • Idiopathic Transient Osteoporosis
    • unknown etiology affecting pregnant females or late-middle aged males
    • Tx: protected WB +/- calcitonin

    • embryonic (cartilage precursor converted to bone)
    • intramembranous (no cartilage model, occurs with true rigid fixation)
  26. What is Groove of Ranvier? function?
    supply chondrocytes to periphery of physis, allows widening of physis
  27. What is the perichondrial ring of LaCroix?
