Bone Tissue

Bone Tissue

1. Bone is a mineralized connective tissue that exhibits four types of cells:

   • Bone lining cells
     • Bone lining cells (BLC's) cover inactive (nonremodeling) bone surfaces, particularly evident in the adult skeleton
   • Osteocyte
     • Osteocyte, a cell that lies within the substance of fully formed bone.
   • osteoblasts
     • Osteoblasts are specialized, terminally differentiated products of mesenchymal stem cells.

2. More tipe of cells

   • osteoclasts
     • Osteoclasts are large multinucleated cells with a myeloid lineage

     • Bone tissue (osseous tissue) is a hard tissue, a type of specialized connective tissue. It has a honeycomb-like matrix internally, which helps to give the bone rigidity. Bone tissue is made up of different types of bone cells.
