The assertion that the microstructure of periosteal new bone formation can be used to differentiate between disease etiologies (Schultz: Yrbk Phys Anthropol 44 2001 106–147; Schultz: Identification of pathological conditions in human skeletal remains, 2nd ed. London: Academic Press 2003 73–109) was tested in a pilot‐study, using diagnosed bone specimens from St George's Hospital Pathology Museum, London, UK. Embedded bone specimens exhibiting pathological periosteal new bone formation were examined using scanning electron microscopy in back‐scattered electron imaging mode (SEM‐BSE). The results suggest that several histological features (i.e. Grenzstreifen, Polsters, and sinuous lacunae) deemed to be diagnostic of specific pathological conditions are of no specific diagnostic value, as they are encountered in pathological conditions of differing disease etiology. These results tie in with a previous investigation demonstrating a lack of diagnostic qualitative or quantitative characteristics seen in the macroscopic and radiographic appearance of periosteal reactions (Weston: Am J Phys Anthropol 137 2008 48–59).

Numerous studies have demonstrated significant associations between periodontal disease and many other diseases in living populations, and some studies have shown that individuals with periodontal disease are at elevated risks of mortality. Recent analysis of a medieval skeletal sample from London has also shown that periodontal disease was associated with increased risks of mortality in the past. This study examines whether periodontal disease is associated with periosteal lesions in a skeletal sample from the urban St. Mary Graces cemetery (n = 265) from medieval London. The results reveal a significant association between periodontal disease and periosteal lesions in the St. Mary Graces sample (i.e., individuals with periodontal disease were also likely to have periosteal lesions), and the association between the two is independent of age. The association between the two pathological conditions might reflect underlying reduced immune competence and thus heightened susceptibility to pathogens that cause periodontal disease or periosteal lesions, exposure to an environmental factor, or underlying heightened inflammatory responses. 相似文献

Over the last four decades, bioarchaeology has experienced significant technical growth and theoretical maturation. Early 21st century bioarchaeology may also be enhanced from a renewed engagement with the concept of biological stress. New insights on biological stress and disease can be gained from cross-disciplinary perspectives regarding human skeletal variation and disease. First, pathophysiologic and molecular signaling mechanisms can provide more precise understandings regarding formation of pathological phenotypes in bone. Using periosteal new bone formation as an example, various mechanisms and pathways are explored in which new bone can be formed under conditions of biological stress, particularly in bone microenvironments that involve inflammatory changes. Second, insights from human biology are examined regarding some epigenetic factors and disease etiology. While epigenetic effects on stress and disease outcomes appear profoundly influential, they are mostly invisible in skeletal tissue. However, some indirect and downstream effects, such as the developmental origins of adult health outcomes, may be partially observable in bioarchaeological data. Emerging perspectives from the human microbiome are also considered. Microbiomics involves a remarkable potential to understand ancient biology, disease, and stress. Third, tools from epidemiology are examined that may aid bioarchaeologists to better cope with some of the inherent limitations of skeletal samples to better measure and quantify the expressions of skeletal stress markers. Such cross-disciplinary synergisms hopefully will promote more complete understandings of health and stress in bioarchaeological science.

An assessment of the presence and patterns of porotic hyperostosis and periosteal reactions in the skeletal population (n = 1,014) from St. Helen-on-the-Walls, York, are used to examine health and disease in urban medieval England. The analyses of these two lesions indicate that 58% of the population display evidence of porotic hyperostosis and that 21.5% of the population display periosteal reactions. Through differential diagnosis it is asserted that porotic hyperostosis is associated with iron-deficiency anemia, and that periosteal reactions may be the result of endemic treponematosis and/or non-specific infection, including parasitic infestation. An association between the presence of remodeled lesions and adulthood is noticeable for both porotic hyperostosis and periosteal reactions, as is a pattern of increased average age at death for those displaying both conditions. © 1993 Wiley-Liss, Inc. 相似文献

The present study was performed (1) to explore the mechanism of skeletal healing following distraction osteogenesis of the mandible and to evaluate whether the same process is involved following acute mandibular resection and rigid external fixation, and (2) to examine the role of the periosteum in skeletal healing in both models. The study was performed using 16 mongrel dogs divided into two equal groups. In the first group, distraction of 20 mm was performed at a rate of 1 mm/day. In the second group, bone resection of 20 mm was performed, followed by rigid external fixation. The buccal periosteum was stripped in four dogs from each group, and the periosteum was left intact in the remaining four dogs. Dogs were euthanized after a survival period of either 2 or 3 months, and the new bone regenerate was evaluated. Analysis consisted of three-dimensional computed tomography scanning, histometric analysis, and immunostaining. Analysis of bone mineral content in the residual gap was conducted. Bone mineral content was increased in 3- versus 2-month survival for all groups (p < 0.05). The distracted groups had greater bone mineral content than their acutely resected counterparts, with the difference achieving statistical significance by 3-month survival (p < 0.05). Although periosteal preservation resulted in increased bone mineral content over time for all groups (p = 0.044), periosteal preservation had no significant effect on bone mineral content in the distracted groups. After periosteal stripping, however, bone mineral content was significantly increased in dogs that underwent distraction rather than acute resection and rigid external fixation (p = 0.022). Regarding histometric analysis, analysis of fibrous tissue content in the bone regenerate demonstrated that by 3 months the distracted groups had significantly less fibrous tissue in the new bone regenerate than did the acutely resected groups (p < 0.001). Regarding immunostaining, diffuse localization of transforming growth factor-beta1 was observed in all groups at 2 months, returning to nearly baseline levels by 3 months. These data demonstrate that significant bone formation in a segmental gap can be achieved after acute mandibular resection and rigid external fixation if the periosteum is preserved. However, after periosteal injury or stripping, significant bone formation can only be achieved by distraction osteogenesis. In both processes, bone formation is preceded by up-regulation of transforming growth factor-beta1. 相似文献

Palaeopathologies are relatively common in the fossil record; however, bone histological analyses of these are rare as they are more commonly discovered and described using radiological scans. Here, we describe the bone microstructure of infectious abscesses (osteomyelitis) in the long bones of two Stegosaurus individuals from the Como Bluff area of the Late Jurassic Morrison Formation. Multiple lytic, geographical lesions filled with reactive lamellar bone occur in a femur of a juvenile specimen. A single lesion was found in an adult tibia. This lesion is characterized by the presence of spiculated periosteal reactive growth perpendicular to the bone surface and the formation of new trabeculae within the lesion. 相似文献

Increased mechanical loading of bone with the rat tibia four-point bending device stimulates bone formation on periosteal and endocortical surfaces. With long-term loading cell activity diminishes, and it has been reported that early gains in bone size may reverse. This study examined the time course for bone cellular and structural response after 6, 12, and 18 wk of loading at 1,200-1, 700 microstrain (muepsilon). Bone formation rates, measured by histomorphometry, were compared within groups, between loaded and contralateral nonloaded tibiae, and between weeks. Formation surface, mineral apposition rate, and bone formation rate on periosteal and endocortical surfaces were elevated after 6 wk of loading. By 12 wk of loading, periosteal and endocortical formation surface and endocortical mineral apposition rates were elevated. By 18 wk of loading, periosteal adaptation appeared complete, whereas endocortical mineral apposition rate remained elevated. No periosteal resorption was observed. Average thickness of new bone formed, from baseline to collection, was greater in loaded than nonloaded tibiae by week 6 and was maintained through week 18. Early increases in bone formation result in periosteal apposition of new bone that persists after formation ceases. 相似文献

Deletion of the P2X7 nucleotide receptor reveals its regulatory roles in bone formation and resorption 总被引:9,自引:0,他引:9
Ke HZ Qi H Weidema AF Zhang Q Panupinthu N Crawford DT Grasser WA Paralkar VM Li M Audoly LP Gabel CA Jee WS Dixon SJ Sims SM Thompson DD 《Molecular endocrinology (Baltimore, Md.)》2003,17(7):1356-1367
The P2X7 nucleotide receptor is an ATP-gated ion channel expressed widely in cells of hematopoietic origin. Our purpose was to explore the involvement of the P2X7 receptor in bone development and remodeling by characterizing the phenotype of mice genetically modified to disrupt the P2X7 receptor [knockout (KO)]. Femoral length did not differ between KO and wild-type (WT) littermates at 2 or 9 months of age, indicating that the P2X7 receptor does not regulate longitudinal bone growth. However, KO mice displayed significant reduction in total and cortical bone content and periosteal circumference in femurs, and reduced periosteal bone formation and increased trabecular bone resorption in tibias. Patch clamp recording confirmed expression of functional P2X7 receptors in osteoclasts from WT but not KO mice. Osteoclasts were present in vivo and formed in cultures of bone marrow from KO mice, indicating that this receptor is not essential for fusion of osteoclast precursors. Functional P2X7 receptors were also found in osteoblasts from WT but not KO mice, suggesting a direct role in bone formation. P2X7 receptor KO mice demonstrate a unique skeletal phenotype that involves deficient periosteal bone formation together with excessive trabecular bone resorption. Thus, the P2X7 receptor represents a novel therapeutic target for the management of skeletal disorders such as osteoporosis. 相似文献

Prefabrication of bone by use of a vascularized periosteal flap and bone morphogenetic protein. 总被引:12,自引:0,他引:12

The purpose of this pilot study was to prefabricate a vascularized bone graft by using a vascularized periosteal flap containing osteoprogenitor cells, a structural matrix, and recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein-2 (rhBMP-2). In a rat model, a periosteal flap vascularized by the saphenous artery and vein was dissected off the medial surface of the tibia. This flap consisted of three layers-periosteum, muscle, and fascia-and was tubed on itself to form a watertight chamber that was then transferred on its vascular pedicle to the groin. A total of 78 vascularized periosteal chambers were constructed in 39 animals and divided into 10 groups. In group 1, the periosteal chamber was left empty. Groups 2, 3, and 4 consisted of the periosteal flap and rhBMP-2, but in group 3, the proximal vascular pedicle was ligated, and in group 4, the flap was harvested without the periosteal layer and turned inside out. Groups 5 through 10 consisted of the vascularized periosteal flap containing several different structural matrices (calcium alginate spheres, polylactic acid, or demineralized bone matrix) with or without rhBMP-2. Animals were killed at 2, 4, or 8 weeks in each group. The presence and density of any new bone formation was evaluated both radiologically and histologically. Significant bone formation was seen only in those periosteal flaps containing rhBMP-2 and either the calcium alginate or polylactic acid matrix. New bone formation increased both radiologically and histologically from 2 weeks to 8 weeks only in the periosteal flaps containing the polylactic acid matrix and rhBMP-2. This preliminary study therefore suggests that four factors-blood supply, osteoprogenitor cells in the periosteal layer, a biodegradable matrix, and rhBMP-2-are required for optimal prefabrication of a vascularized bone graft. 相似文献

The prevalence and patterning of inflammatory lesions of the skeleton were investigated in samples of chimpanzees (Pan troglodytes troglodytes) and gorillas (Gorilla gorilla gorilla) curated at the Powell-Cotton Museum, Birchington, UK. One hundred and two chimpanzees (42 adults and 60 subadults) and 126
gorillas (50 adults and 76 subadults) comprise the samples. Twenty per cent of chimpanzees and 14% of gorillas were affected
with a disseminated inflammatory skeletal condition caused by infection. The lesions appear to have originated as localized
patches of new bone deposition on the surface of long bones and to have progressed to infection of the bone cortex and marrow.
Although female prevalence of involvement exceeds that of males in both species, the differences are not statistically significant.
The age distribution of affected animals indicates that the disease began in some animals as early as 2 yr of age. Given the
skeletal and demographic prevalence and patterning of the lesions as well as the ecology and behavior of these animals, the
most likely diagnosis of the condition is a yaws-like treponemal infection. 相似文献

Recent evidence suggests that patients suffering from chronic obstructive pulmonary disease are also at an increased risk of developing osteoporosis. The pathophysiological mechanism(s) linking these progressive diseases is unknown. The goal of this investigation was to determine whether there were alterations in bone mineral density and content, cortical bone structure and strength, and indexes of bone formation and resorption in the elastase-induced emphysematous hamster. At 3 wk after induction of emphysema, the femoral bone mineral content was 8% less (P = 0.026) and the femoral fracture strength was 6% less (P = 0.032) in the emphysematous hamster than in controls. The cortical area was 8.4% less (P = 0.013) and the periosteal mineral appositional rate was 27% less (P = 0.05) than in controls. Additionally, the endocortical eroded surface in the emphysematous group was about twice that in the control group (P = 0.003). Differences in some indexes of bone formation and resorption, paralleled by differences in bone structure and strength, were observed 3 wk after induction of emphysema. These differences in skeletal metabolism and strength may help explain some of the skeletal changes associated with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease in humans. 相似文献

Twenty-six documented cases (17 blacks, 9 whites) of skeletal tuberculosis from the Hamann-Todd Osteological Collection, Cleveland Museum of Natural History, were analyzed for lesion variability and patterns of multiple site involvement. In addition, several documented cases of pathologic conditions (osteomyelitis, vertebral fractures, and malignant bone tumors) that resemble skeletal tuberculosis were photographed and described for use in differential diagnosis. The range of variation of tuberculous lesions was found to be considerable. Thirty-eight percent (10/26) of the cases display skeletal lesions in two or more regions concomitantly. The average number of vertebrae affected, as well as the incidence of multiple bone involvement, were found to be higher in blacks. Certain combinations of skeletal lesions (e. g., spine-rib, spine-rib-sternum, and spine-hip) may be useful in the diagnosis of tuberculosis in dry bone material. 相似文献

The diagnosis of tuberculosis (TB) in osteoarcheological series relies on the identification of osseous lesions caused by the disease. The study of identified skeletal collections provides the opportunity to investigate the distribution of skeletal lesions in relation to this disease. The aim of this study was to examine the skeletal evidence for TB in late adolescent and adult individuals from the identified human collection of the Certosa cemetery of Bologna (Italy, 19th–20th c.). The sample group consists of 244 individuals (138 males, 106 females) ranging from 17 to 88 years of age. The sample was divided into three groups on the basis of the recorded cause of death: TB (N = 64), pulmonary non‐TB (N = 29), and other diseases (N = 151). Skeletal lesions reported to be related to TB were analyzed. The vertebral lesions were classified into three types: enlarged foramina (EnF, vascular foramina with diameter of 3–5 mm), erosions (ER), and other foramina (OtF, cavities of various shapes > 3 mm). A CT scan analysis was also performed on vertebral bodies. Some lesions were seldom present in our sample (e.g., tuberculous arthritis). OtF (23.7%) and subperiosteal new bone formation on ribs (54.2%) are significantly more frequent in the TB group with respect to the other groups. The CT scan analysis showed that the vertebrae of individuals who have died of TB may have internal cavities in the absence of external lesions. These traits represent useful elements in the paleopathological diagnosis of TB. Am J Phys Anthropol 157:389–401, 2015. © 2015 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. 相似文献

The effects of early wound closure using a local muscle flap on the development of periosteal new bone formation in a rat burn model were studied. Following a full-thickness burn to one hind limb, periosteal new bone formation along the tibial diaphysis was measured by the use of the fluorochrome agent calcein and an image-analysis system. Prostaglandin E levels, a known inflammatory mediator, from the bone beneath the burn also were measured. Periosteal new bone formation was inhibited by 50 percent in animals that had debridement and wound closure with a gastrocnemius muscle flap and skin graft on postburn day 2 compared to untreated controls or animals closed with skin grafts only. There was a trend toward reduced prostaglandin E measurements from tibial sections in the early closure group compared to untreated controls. This study demonstrates that early wound closure using a local muscle flap inhibits the periosteal new bone formation which is possibly associated with the inflammation in a rat burn model. 相似文献

The skeletal remains of 17 people buried in the Eaton Ferry Cemetery in northern North Carolina provide a means of examining health and infectious disease experience in the XIX century South. The cemetery appears to contain the remains of African Americans enslaved on the Eaton family estate from approximately 1830-1850, and thus offers a window into the biological impacts of North American slavery in the years preceding the Civil War. The sample includes the remains of six infants, one child, and one young and nine mature adults (five men, four women, and one unknown). Skeletal indices used to characterize health and disease in the Eaton Ferry sample include dental caries, antemortem tooth loss, enamel hypoplasia, porotic hyperostosis, periosteal lesions, lytic lesions, and stature. These indicators reveal a cumulative picture of compromised health, including high rates of dental disease, childhood growth disruption, and infectious disease. Specific diseases identified in the sample include tuberculosis and congenital syphilis. Findings support previous research on the health impacts of slavery, which has shown that infants and children were the most negatively impacted segment of the enslaved African American population. 相似文献

We have developed an improved mechanobiological model of bone morphogenesis and functional adaptation that includes the influences of periosteum tension and pressure on bone formation and resorption. Previous models assumed that periosteal and endosteal bone deposition and resorption rates are governed only by the local intracortical daily stress or strain stimulus caused by cyclic loading. The new model incorporates experimental findings that pressures on periosteal surfaces can impede bone formation or induce bone resorption, whereas periosteal tensile strains perpendicular to bone surfaces can impede bone resorption or induce bone formation. We propose that these effects can produce flattened or concave bone surfaces in regions of periosteal pressure and bone ridges in regions of periosteal tension. The model was implemented with computer simulations to illustrate the role of adjacent muscles on the development of the triangular cross-sectional geometry of the rat tibia. The results suggest that intracortical stresses dictate bone size, whereas periosteal pressures may work in combination with intracortical stresses and other mechanobiological factors in the development of local bone cross-sectional shapes. 相似文献

The role of new bone formation on visceral surfaces of ribs in the diagnosis of tuberculosis (TB) in past human populations has been explored by many researchers, using both skeletal remains with known causes of death and archaeological samples. This study focuses, firstly, on adult skeletons from the Coimbra Identified Skeletal Collection in Portugal and investigates the skeletal manifestations of individuals known to have died from TB; secondly, this study focuses on the role of rib lesions in the diagnostic criteria for TB. One hundred and fifty-seven males and 106 females aged between 22-87 years were examined; causes of death were assigned as pulmonary TB, extrapulmonary TB, and pulmonary non-TB; a control group, extrapulmonary non-TB, was selected from the remaining individuals. Of individuals with rib lesions, 85.7% (69/81) had pulmonary or extrapulmonary TB as an assigned cause of death, while 17.8% (16/90) of individuals with rib lesions had a non-TB cause of death. Rib lesions were significantly more common in individuals who had died from TB, although the lesions cannot be considered pathognomonic for TB. In individuals dying from pulmonary TB, ribs in the central part of the rib cage were most affected, at their vertebral ends. The lower part of the rib cage may be a marker for peritoneal TB, and "coral-like" new bone formation on ribs may be an indicator of neoplastic disease. Further work on rib involvement in TB in clinical contexts, and the study of further documented skeletal collections, are recommended. 相似文献

河南邓州八里岗遗址出土的仰韶早期与中晚期人骨体质状况的对比分析表明,八里岗仰韶文化在其延续千年的时间内,居民体质状况从早期到中晚期出现一系列变化。具体表现为女性身高的减少、男女性下肢功能活跃度的降低以及四肢长骨纤细化的倾向。古病理指征则展现出龋病发生的显著增加、头骨钝伤的减少以及女性胫骨骨膜反应增多等表现。这些体质状况的变迁,与八里岗仰韶文化发展过程中日趋定居的生活方式、农业经济渐趋成熟以及食物加工技术的进步有关。与此同时,女性的社会地位开始呈现下降的趋势。八里岗仰韶居民的体质特征改变与这一阶段仰韶社会的发展状况及古代人类的行为模式存在密切联系。 相似文献

Characterization of the nature and skeletal distribution of gout was accomplished in a Chamoru (Chamorros) population with predilection to the disease. Uniform excavation by the gouty diathesis produces a punched-out appearance to these predominantly monarticular lesions. The lesion is distinct from that seen in rheumatoid arthritis, spondyloarthropathy, or infection. Reactive new bone formation in some gouty lesions also has an apparently unique, ivory-like discoloration (contrasted with the adjacent bone), which facilitates diagnosis. © 1995 Wiley-Liss, Inc. 相似文献
