Abstract:
:An ultrastructural study was undertaken on cartilage resorption at the site of initial endochondral bone formation in the mouse mandibular condyle on d 16 of pregnancy. After resorbing the bone collar, the osteoclasts extended their cell processes into the cartilage matrix and made contact with hypertrophic chondrocytes. By means of cell processes or vacuolar structures, these osteoclasts entrapped the calcified cartilage matrices, cell debris, and the degraded uncalcified cartilage matrices. In particular, since the calcified cartilage matrices were sometimes seen to be disrupted within the osteoclastic vacuolar structures, they were probably disposed of by the osteoclasts. Invading endothelial cells giving rise to capillaries also directly surrounded the degraded uncalcified cartilage matrices and small deposits of cell debris. In addition, hypertrophic chondrocytes that had attached to or were in the process of attaching to the invading osteoclasts often enclosed the small calcified cartilage matrices. Other cell types that have often been reported in other regions of cartilage resorption were not seen at the site of initial endochondral bone formation in this study. Our findings in relation to cartilage resorption may therefore represent unique features of the site of initial endochondral bone formation site. We consider that the manner of cartilage resorption is likely to vary by site, age, and species.
