Abstract

The skeleton is a metabolically active organ that is constantly remodeled throughout one's life. Bone remodeling entails the removal of mineralized bone by osteoclasts and the subsequent synthesis of bone matrix by osteoblasts, which thereafter become mineralized. Resorption, when osteoclasts eat old bone; reversal, when mononuclear cells emerge on the bone surface; and production, when osteoblasts lay down new bone until the resorbed bone is completely replaced, are the three steps of the remodeling cycle. Bone remodeling helps to modify bone architecture to meet changing mechanical needs and prevents the accumulation of old bone by repairing micro-damages in the matrix. It is also essential for maintaining plasma calcium homeostasis.
