Osteocytes become surrounded by bone matrix and are relatively inactive, but do have the capability to produce components needed to maintain the bone matrix if needed. Lacunae osteoblasts change into osteocytes.
As you know, osteoblasts secrete collagen and organic cmpounds upon which bone is formed. Osteoblasts are incapable of mitosis. As Osteoblasts release matrix materials around themselves, they become enveloped by the matrix and at this point differentiate into Osteocytes.
Cells that form bones are called osteoblasts.
Mature bone cells are called osteocytes. These cells are responsible for maintaining bone tissue and regulating mineral content.
The cells that produce the collagen and inorganic salts of bone matrix are osteocytes. Osteocytes maintain the protein and mineral content of the bone matrix. Osteogenesis is the production of new bone matrix.
Three different types of cells are found in bones: osteoblasts, osteocytes, and osteoclasts. Good luck!!
osteocytes

No, osteocytes don't mature into osteoblasts. Osteoblasts mature into osteocytes.
No. Osteocytes have a nucleus.
Osteocytes are mature osteoblasts which maintain the bone structure.
an osteocyte is a bone cellan osteoblast is specific to the building/production of new boneOsteocytes are mature bone cells that maintains the bone matrix. Osteoblasts are immature bone cells that secrete organic components of matrix.
Yes, bones cells are also called osteocytes.
Cells that form bones are called osteoblasts.
Mature bone cells are called osteocytes. These cells are responsible for maintaining bone tissue and regulating mineral content.
add me on facebook and i will tell you

No, osteocytes are not white blood cells. Osteocytes are a type of bone cell that are responsible for maintaining bone tissue. White blood cells, on the other hand, are part of the immune system and are involved in fighting off infections and diseases.
