The increase in osteoclasis and the uncoupling of osteoblastic and osteoclastic activity resulted in an increase in resorptive surfaces. |
Measuring the decrease in bone tracer content was not a feasible approach because the resorptive process removes mainly older bone, which contains little or no tracer. |
In HPTH, bone formation rate is markedly elevated and increases in formative and resorptive markers seem to be of equivalent size. |
This influence, along with the specialized receptors along the tubule, allows each tubular section a selective resorptive and secretory function. |
The hyperplastic synovial tissue then assumes a position around the head of the condyle, further exposing the condyle to the substrates that create the resorptive phenomenon. |
