Bone Hierarchical Structure: Heterogeneity and Uniformity

Adrian Rodriguez‐Palomo,
Maja Østergaard,
Henrik Birkedal

Abstract: Bone has a complex hierarchical structure with structural integration from nm to cm. The understanding of bone structure is developing rapidly due to improvements in available methodologies that allow unravelling structures across several length scales. These methods include advances in electron microscopy, in particular, focused ion beam scanning electron microscopy (FIB‐SEM), confocal laser scanning microscopy techniques, X‐ray imaging, X‐ray diffraction tomography (XRD‐CT), and tensor tomography (small angl… Show more

“…Cortical bone comprises densely packed osteons with concentric rings surrounding a central canal. Additionally, cortical bone is anisotropic and has a 5%–15% porosity ( Morgan et al, 2018 ; Rodriguez Palomo et al, 2023 ; Zhou et al, 2023 ). Furthermore, the cortical bone has a transverse elastic modulus of 10.1 ± 2.4 GPa and a longitudinal elastic modulus of 17.9 ± 3.9 GPa ( Reilly and Burstein, 1975 ).…”

“…Bone structure can vary, ranging from immature woven bone, characterized by a chaotic arrangement of loosely packed fibrils, to mature lamellar bone, which features densely packed collagen fibers aligned parallel within each lamella but with alternating orientations across lamellae . Lamellar bone develops during the bone remodeling process, where osteoblasts align in a polarized manner along a surface, depositing collagen fibrils in a parallel orientation . Besides collagen, a smaller fraction of the organic matrix includes noncollagenous proteins (NCPs), which are crucial for the assembly of collagen fibrils and their subsequent mineralization.…”

“… 12 Lamellar bone develops during the bone remodeling process, where osteoblasts align in a polarized manner along a surface, depositing collagen fibrils in a parallel orientation. 13 Besides collagen, a smaller fraction of the organic matrix includes noncollagenous proteins (NCPs), which are crucial for the assembly of collagen fibrils and their subsequent mineralization. This combination of the collagen network, the organization of individual collagen fibrils, and NCPs serve as a foundational template for mineralization, significantly influencing the final structure of the ECM.…”
