Low bone mineral density and osteoporosis in CF
ثبت نشده
چکیده
Throughout life the skeleton is constantly remodelled by a co-ordinated programme of cellular activity that removes, renews and repairs damaged bone. About 10% of the adult skeleton is remodelled each year. Specialised cells, perhaps stimulated by factors released when bone undergoes even microscopic damage, resorb a specific amount of bone from the damaged areas before undergoing a programmed cell death. The repair process is then continued by further specialised cells that form the new bone.
