| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Osteocytes form the cellular network by their long processes and act as mechanosensory cells in bone. However, it is unknown how this cellular network is formed and what kind of factors influence the network formation. Focused ion beam-scanning electron microscopy (FIB-SEM) has increasingly found use in biological research. The main application is in the acquisition of three-dimensional data by tomography. We therefore reconstructed three-dimensional images of the osteocyte network as well as the collagen fibrils during bone modeling. Based on the positional relationships of osteocytes and collagen fibrils, we analyzed the influence of the collagen bundle formation on the osteocyte network formation.
