Describe the functions of the skeleton 3. Classify and describe characteristics of skeletal tissue 4. Classify and describe characteristics of bone The skeleton serves as a support or framework of the human body. It is a combination of bones joined together. The two major type of tissue found in the skeletal system are bone and cartilage connective tissue FUNCTIONS OF THE HUMAN SKELETON a. Body Support. The skeletal system provides a framework for the human body, contribute to shape, alignment, and positioning of the body parts b. Protection. Bony boxes protects the delicate structures they enclose. E.g. skull, pelvis, thoracic cavity, vertebral column c. Motion. Bones with their joints constitute levers that move as muscles contract d. Mineral Storage. Bones are the major reservoir for calcium, phosphorus and other minerals e. Formation of Blood Cells (Haemopoiesis). Blood cell formation is carried out by myeloid tissue found in the bone marrow - mainly found in flat bones. BASIC STRUCTURE OF AN INDIVIDUAL BONE The skeleton is made up of 206 individual bones joined together by ligaments. Each bone is an organ made up of various body tissues. Bones can be classified according to structure or shape. According to structure, they are classified into: (1) Compact or Lamella bone or cortical bone - cortex (2) Cancellous or Spongy or woven bone - medulla Individual bones are composed 2 parts: - 1. Cortex - The cortex is the outer layer of the individual bone made up of compact bone 2. Medulla. The medulla is the central portion of the individual bone made up of cancellous bone. Bone marrow There are two types of bone marrow: - 1. Yellow bone marrow - mostly made up of yellow fat tissue. 2. Red bone marrow – made up of haemopoetic tissue which is the only site in adults for the formation of red blood cells (haemopoiesis). TYPES OF BONE Individual bones of the skeleton can be classified into 4 major types depending on their shape. These are: 1. Long bones 2. Short bones 3. Flat bones 4. Irregular bones a. Long Bones. The basic structure of a long bone is made up of 5 major parts e.g. femur. b. Short Bones. The short bones, such as those of the wrist and feet, have a thin layer of compact bone surrounding an inner mass of spongy bone. Example: carpal bones. c.Flat Bones. The flat bones are constructed with two plates of compact bone, which enclose between them a layer of spongy bone. The spongy bone is richly supplied with blood vessels and red marrow. Example: the cranial frontal bone. d. Irregular Bones. The irregular bones are those that do not fit into the three categories above. Example: a vertebra SHORT BONES –HAND FLAT BONES -HUMAN SKULL IRREGULAR BONES –VERTEBRAL COLUMN LONG BONES-HUMERUS Sesamoid Bones Sesamoid bones are small masses of bone that develop in tendons at points where great forces are applied to the tendons. The most obvious and largest sesamoid bone is the patella, or kneecap. Blood Supply of an Individual Bone. • A system of blood vessels enters and spreads out through the periosteum. • Additional blood vessels, called "nutrient vessels," penetrate the cortex of the bone and spread out through the marrow. • The passageways for penetration of these vessels are called the nutrient canals. Osteogenesis Osteogenesis is the process of development of bone from small cartilage or membranous models to adult bone DISEASES AFFECTING THE SKELETAL TISSUE •Malignant tumors (cancers)- Osteosarcoma, Chodrosarcoma •Metabolic diseases – Osteoporosis, Rickets, Osteomalacia, Paget’s disease (osteitis deformans) •Infections – Osteomyelitis. THE AXIAL SKELETON The human skeleton is a collection of individual bones articulated (joined) together. (206 individual bones in total) The major subdivisions of the skeleton are 1.The axial skeleton – 80 bones 2. The appendicular skeleton – 126 bones It is the central framework of the human body, and its composed of the following 3 components: - 1.The skull 2.The vertebral column (spine) 3.The thoracic cage (rib cage) The axial skeleton consists of 80 bones: •29 bones in the head - 8 cranial and 14 facial bones and 7 associated bones (6 auditory ossicles and the Hyoid Bone) •25 bones of the thorax - (the sternum and 24 ribs) •26 bones in the vertebral column (24 vertebrae, the sacrum and the coccyx) THE SKULL The skull is the bony framework (skeleton) of the head region. It has two major subdivisions: the cranium which encases and protects the brain and the facial skeleton which is involved with the beginnings of the digestive and respiratory systems. Cranium, 8 bones 1 Occipital. 2 Parietals. 1 Frontal. 2 Temporals. 1 Sphenoidal. 1 Ethmoidal. In addition, there are 3 pairs of ear ossicles (6 total): –Malleous –Incus –Staples THE VERTEBRAL COLUMN(SPINE) The vertebral column, or spine, is made up of a vertical series of bony blocks called vertebrae. These vertebrae are joined together in such a way as to form a semiflexible rod. The spine is the central support for the trunk, yet allows trunk movements. DIVISIONS OF THE VERTEBRAL COLUMN The vertebral column has 32-33 vertebrae, one on top of the other. These vertebrae are arranged in regions. The vertebrae of each region have a characteristic shape. The regions are as follows: Cervical (neck) region, with 7 cervical vertebrae. (b) Thoracic (chest) region, with 12 thoracic vertebrae. (c) Lumbar (low back) region with 5 lumbar vertebrae. (d) The sacrum, which is a bony fusion of 5 sacral vertebrae. (e) The coccyx ("tail"), with 3-4 coccygeal vertebrae together. The Thoracic (Rib) Cage The rib cage forms a protective enclosure for the vital organs contained within the thorax (chest) such as the heart and lungs. It also allows the movements of breathing to take place. The Rib Cage The rib cage consists of the 12 thoracic vertebrae, 12 pairs of ribs, and the sternum. Each rib is curved laterally from back to front. All 12 pairs of ribs are attached posteriorly to the thoracic vertebrae. The upper seven pairs of ribs (true ribs) are attached directly to the sternum by their costal cartilages. The eighth through tenth pairs of ribs (false ribs) are attached indirectly to the sternum through their costal cartilages (by attaching to the costal cartilage of the rib above). Rib pairs 11 and 12 (floating ribs) do not attach to the sternum. Instead, they are embedded in the trunk wall muscles. The Ribs There are 3 types of ribs: True Ribs – ribs 1-7 ; these are attached directly to the sternum through their own costal cartilages. False Ribs – ribs 8-10; their costal cartilages are joined to the rib just above them so their attachment to the sternum is indirect Floating Ribs – ribs 11-12; these ribs attach to vertebrae, but not to the sternum so they float on one end THE APPENDICULAR SYSTEM Appendicular skeleton refers to the bones of the limbs and the girdles that attach them to the axial skeleton. It is made up of the skeletal elements of the upper and lower members. These members are appended (attached) to the axial skeleton. The appendicular skeleton is made up of a total of 126 bones plus 8 sesamoid bones Functions of the appendicular skeleton 1.Locomotion 2.Protection of major organs of digestive, excretion and reproductive organs 3.Holds and supports the limbs 4.Enables skilled movements of the hands Structural Organization of the appendicular skeleton •The appendicular skeleton is generally organized into upper and lower limbs. •Each limb is made up of the following 4 segments: - 1.Girdle 2.Proximal segment 3.Middle segment 4.Distal segment Carpal Bones – Mnemonic- She Looks Too Pretty Try To Catch Her S: scaphoid L: lunate T: triquetrum P: pisiform T: trapezium T: trapezoid C: capitate H: hamate The Circus Needs More Interesting Little Clowns.

They also produce body heat. a. Smooth muscle tissue is utilized to make up the muscular portion of the various visceral organs b. Cardiac muscle tissue makes up the muscular wall of the heart--the myocardium. c. Striated muscle tissue is used in the makeup of several types of muscles. The main type of muscle is the skeletal muscle. Other types of muscles made with striated muscle tissue are the facial or integumentary muscles and muscles of the jaw apparatus. THE SKELETAL MUSCLE •There are 600 named muscles in a human body •Each skeletal muscle is an individual organ of the human body. •Each is made up of several types of tissues-- mainly, striated muscle fibers and FCT (fibrous connective tissue). •Each is attached to and moves bones. •Bones are parts of the skeleton serving as levers. General Construction of a Skeletal Muscle •The large portion of a muscle is known as its belly or fleshy belly. •This muscle is attached to bones by tendons or aponeuroses. •Tendons and aponeuroses are similar to each other. However, tendons are cord-like and aponeuroses are broad and flat. •The fleshy portion may be directly connected to the bone.

AGRANULOOYTOSIS ,- Senior Thesis by GOrdon .M.. Gunn INTRODUCTION Fifteen years ago the medioal profession new nothing of the disease spoken of in this paper as agranulocytosis. Since Schultz, in 1922, gave an accurate description of a fulminat­ ing case, agranulocytosis has oomettoClOCo.'UPy more and more prominence in the medical field. Today, the literature is fairly teeming with accounts of isolated cases of all descriptions. Added to this a confus­ ing nomenclature, varied classifications, and heterogeneous forms of treatment; and the large question of whether it is a disease entity, a group of diseases, or only a symptom complex, and some idea may be garnered as to the progress made. Time is a most important factor in diagnosis of this disease, and the prognosis at best is grave. The treatment has gone through the maze of trials as that of any other new disease; there must be a cause and so there must be some specific treatment.

  • Organs of the Immune System
    ORGANS OF THE IMMUNE SYSTEM BY MRS. N .MAKANDI ORGANS OF THE IMMUNE SYSTEM Major organs of the immune system are bone marrow, thymus, spleen and lymph nodes. These organs produce lymphocytes required to destroy bacteria, virus, tumor cells, etc. NB// The function of the immune system is protecting the body from parasitic, bacterial, viral, fungal infections and from the growth of tumor cells. • Organs of the immune system make cells that either contribute in the immune response or act as sites for the immune function. There are two groups of immune system organs. • Primary (central) organs where immature lymphocytes develop – Thymus – Bone marrow • Secondary (peripheral) organs --tissues where antigen is localized so that it can be effectively exposed to mature lymphocytes – Lymph nodes – Spleen – MALT (Mucosal-Associated Lymphoid Tissue) • GALT (Gut-Associated Lymphoid Tissue) • BALT (Bronchial/Tracheal-Associated Lymphoid Tissue) • NALT (Nose-Associated Lymphoid Tissue) • VALT (Vulvovaginal-Associated Lymphoid Tissue) Primary (central) lymphoid organs Bone marrow • All the cells of the human immune system are formed in the bone marrow, found within the bones, by a process called hematopoiesis. • The process of hematopoiesis involves differentiation of bone-marrow derived stem cells either into mature cells of the immune system or precursor of cells which move out of the bone marrow and continue their maturation elsewhere. • The bone marrow is responsible for the production of important immune system cells like B cells, granulocytes, natural killer cells and immature thymocytes. It also produces red blood cells and platelets • Bone marrow is the site of B cell maturation. • The site of B cell maturation in birds is the bursa of Fabricius, after which B cells are named.

  • Latin Language and Medical Terminology
    ODESSA NATIONAL MEDICAL UNIVERSITY Department of foreign languages Latin Language and medical terminology TextbookONMedU for 1st year students of medicine and dentistry Odessa 2018 Authors: Liubov Netrebchuk, Tamara Skuratova, Liubov Morar, Anastasiya Tsiba, Yelena Chaika ONMedU This manual is meant for foreign students studying the course “Latin and Medical Terminology” at Medical Faculty and Dentistry Faculty (the language of instruction: English). 3 Preface Textbook “Latin and Medical Terminology” is designed to be a comprehensive textbook covering the entire curriculum for medical students in this subject. The course “Latin and Medical Terminology” is a two-semester course that introduces students to the Latin and Greek medical terms that are commonly used in Medicine. The aim of the two-semester course is to achieve an active command of basic grammatical phenomena and rules with a special stress on the system of the language and on the specific character of medical terminology and promote further work with it. The textbook consists of three basic parts: 1. Anatomical Terminology: The primary rank is for anatomical nomenclature whose international version remains Latin in the full extent. Anatomical nomenclature is produced on base of the Latin language. Latin as a dead language does not develop and does not belong to any country or nation. It has a number of advantages that classical languages offer, its constancy, international character and neutrality. 2. Clinical Terminology: Clinical terminology represents a very interesting part of the Latin language. Many clinical terms came to English from Latin and people are used to their meanings and do not consider about their origin.

Describe the components of bone marrow 4. Describe the types of bone marrow 5. Explain the functions of bone marrow What is Bone Marrow? ■ Bone marrow, also called myeloid tissue, is the soft, highly vascular and flexible connective tissue within bone cavities which serve as the primary site of new blood cell production or hematopoiesis. Where is the Bone Marrow found? ■ In a newborn baby's bones exclusively contain hematopoietically active "red" marrow, and there is a progressive conversion towards "yellow" marrow with age. ■ In adults, red marrow is found mainly in the central skeleton, such as the pelvis, sternum, cranium, ribs, vert ebrae and scapulae, and variably found in the proximal epiphyseal ends of long bones such as the femur and humerus. What are the components of Bone Marrow? ■ The bone marrow is composed of both cellular and non-cellular components and is structurally divided into vascular and non-vascular regions. ■ The non-vascular section of bone marrow is composed of hemopoietic cells of various lineages and maturity, packed between fat cells, thin bands of bony tissue (trabeculae), collagen fibers, fibroblasts and dendritic cells. This is where hematopoiesis takes place. ■ The vascular section contains blood vessels that supply the bone with nutrients and transport blood stem cells and formed mature blood cells away into circulation. ■ Ultrastructural studies show hemopoietic cells cluster around the vascular sinuses where they mature, before they eventually are discharged into the blood.

    Hematopoietic Stem Cells with High Proliferative Potential: ASSAY OF THEIR CONCENTRATION IN MARROW BY THE FREQUENCY AND DURATION OF CURE OF W/Wv MICE Dane R. Boggs, … , Lora A. Gress, Don R. Canfield J Clin Invest. 1982;70(2):242-253. https://doi.org/10.1172/JCI110611. This study was designed to approach two primary questions concerning hematopoietic stem cells (HSC) in mice: what is the concentration of HSC with extensive proliferative potential in marrow, and how long can an HSC continue to function in an intact animal? The assay system was the W/Wv mouse, a mouse with an inherited HSC defect, reflected in a reduction in all myeloid tissue and most particularly in a macrocytic anemia. A single chromosomally marked HSC will reconstitute the defective hematopoietic system of the W/Wv. The concentration of HSC in normal littermate (+/+) marrow was assayed by limiting dilution calculation using cure of W/Wv as an end point (correction of anemia and erythrocytes' macrocytosis) and found to be ∼10/105. This is significantly less than spleen colony forming cell (CFU-S) concentration: ∼220/105 in +/+ and ranging from 50 to 270/105 in various other studies. Blood values were studied at selected intervals for as long as 26 mo. Of 24 initially cured mice, which were observed for at least 2 yr, 75% remained cured. However, of all cured mice, 17 lost the cure, returning to a macrocytic anemic state. Cured mice had normal numbers of nucleated and granulocytic cells per humerus and a normal concentration of CFU-S. However, cure of secondary W/Wv recipients by this marrow was inefficient compared with the original +/+ […] Find the latest version: https://jci.me/110611/pdf Hematopoietic Stem Cells with High Proliferative Potential ASSAY OF THEIR CONCENTRATION IN MARROW BY THE FREQUENCY AND DURATION OF CURE OF W/WV MICE DANE R.

  • JOURNAL of CANCER a Continuation of the Journal of Cancer Research
    THE AMERICAN JOURNAL OF CANCER A Continuation of The Journal of Cancer Research VOLUMEXXXVII SEPTEMBER,1939 NUMBER1 MYELOID LEUKEMIA AND NON-MALIGNANT EXTRAMEDULLARY MYELOPOIESIS IN MICE' W. A. BARNES, M.D., AND I. E. SISMAN, M.D. (From the Department of Pathology, Cornell University Medical College, New York) Lymphatic leukemia of mice has been extensively studied by many investi- gators (cf. 1, 2). The anatomical changes are well known and their differ- entiation from non-leukemic processes offers little or no difficulty. Myeloid leukemia is in most stocks of mice much less frequent than lymphoid leukemia (cf. Emile-Weil and Bousser, 1; Opie, 3). In the Slye stock, however, Simonds found 39 cases of myeloid and 28 of lymphatic leukemia in the first 15,000 autopsies. In our Stock Ak lymphoid leukemia is very common but myeloid leukemia is rare. Tn Stock Rf, on the other hand, myeloid leukemia occurs frequently but lymphoid leukemia is unusual. In Stock S both types are found, as well as atypical forms. It is not possible from the literature to give exact figures for the incidence of myeloid leukemia because, thus far, it has not been sharply separated from non-malignant extramedullary myelo- poiesis. Simonds (4), who first extensively studied leukemia in mice, states: I' It was necessary to differentiate myelogenous leukemia in mice from an inflammatory leukocytosis. In the latter condition, a focus of acute infection could frequently be found in some organ, such as pneumonia, an abscess or a pyelitis. In such infections the blood was frequently remarkably rich in nucleated cells and these might almost equal the number seen in myelogenous leukemia.
