The collagen fiber density is lowest at the seams between lamellae, accounting for the distinctive microscopic appearance of a transverse section of osteons. The space between osteons is occupied by interstitial lamellae , which are the remnants of osteons that were partially resorbed during the process of bone remodeling .
Each Haversian canal generally contains one or two capillaries and many nerve fibres. The channels are formed by concentric layers called lamellae , which are approximately 50 μm in diameter . The Haversian canals surround blood vessels and nerve cells throughout bones and communicate with osteocytes (contained in spaces within the dense bone ...
The cell also exhibits a reduced size endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi apparatus and mitochondria, and cell processes that radiate largely towards the bone surfaces in circumferential lamellae, or towards a haversian canal and outer cement line typical of osteons in concentric lamellar bone. [5]
The lacuna are situated between the lamellae, and consist of a number of oblong spaces. In an ordinary microscopic section, viewed by transmitted light, they appear as fusiform opaque spots. Each lacuna is occupied during life by a branched cell, termed an osteocyte, bone-cell or bone-corpuscle.
This is just one of many alleged crimes dating back to the 1990s that would have gone unsolved if it weren't for two persistent victims: a small-town chief and a Northern California district attorney.
Nabers, 21, was the Giants' first-round pick (No. 6 overall) in the 2024 NFL Draft out of LSU.As a junior, he tallied 89 catches for 1,569 yards and 14 touchdowns with the Tigers.
This bill has a ticket to ride. The City Council is mulling a law that would require license plates and registration for electric bikes and scooters — after 47 people were killed in e-bike ...
Bone canaliculi are microscopic canals between the lacunae of ossified bone.The radiating processes of the osteocytes (called filopodia) project into these canals. These cytoplasmic processes are joined together by gap junctions.
