Functional adaptation of bone normally protects the skeleton from fracture during daily activity. Accumulation of microcracking and loss of osteocytes have been implicated in the regulation and initiation of targeted (reparative) remodeling of bone and, in certain situations, the development of fatigue or stress fracture. We performed a histologic study of the dorsal cortex of the mid-diaphysis of...
Cyclic loading induces fatigue in bone and initiates a complex, functionally adaptive response. We investigated the effect of a single period of fatigue on the histologic structure and biomechanical properties of bone. The ulnae of 40 rats were subjected to cyclic fatigue (-6000 με) unilaterally until 40% loss of stiffness developed, followed by 14 days of adaptation. The contralateral ulna served...
