| Research Abstract |
Bone remodeling Is related to maintenance of the form of spongeous bone, progress of osteoporosis, healing of bone fracture and after Implant insertion. Although the mechanism of bone remodeling has been clarified on the role of biological local parameters and cells, bone remodeling has been simulated with only mechanical standpoint. The purpose of this study was to clarify the bone remodeling mechanisms by a new biological simulation. A portion or bone was Simulated with grid elements that contained Ca, osteoblasts, and osteoclasts. From the initial shape, bone remodeling simulation with the known biochemical mechanism was performed. In every steps of simulation, parameters in each element were calculated. Change of bone shape was simulated until 800 steps with original software. At 100th steps, there was no bone formation and resorption, and Ca, osteoclast, and osteoblast were distributed randomly. At 300th steps, bone formation occurred at the area adjacent to bone where the Ca concentration and osteoclast density was high. The osteoclast density around the area became high. The newly formed bone was elongated at 500th steps, and formed bone became spongeous bone structures at 700th steps. Spongeous bone formation from Simple bone marrow could be Simulated by a new biological Simulation. Biological factors, such as Ca concentration, osteoclast density, and osteoblast density, might contribute to the success of Such a simulation in this study.
