Precipitation of the salt calcium phosphate among fibers of the protein type I collagen.
This results from raising the concentrations of calcium ions and phosphate ions beyond
their "solubility product" concentration. This occurs next to special cells called osteocytes, and not inside their cytoplasm. Nobody has discovered the mechanism
by which osteocytes pump high concentrations of calcium ions and also high concentrations of phosphate ions into the same locations. One theory is that a special
protein ("osteoid") binds to both calcium ions and phosphate ions, so that they precipitate at concentrations that would not be high enough to cause precipitation if no osteoid were present.
If you know how osteocytes cause bone synthesis, then you should publish this information in a refereed journal, such as Nature.

The most abundant cell type in bone is?
Osteocytes are the most abundant bone cell type comprising about 95% of all bone cells. Although relatively inert, they are capable of molecular modification and synthesis.
What happen to kidney if blood oxygen decrease?
I believe it causes the kidneys to secrete more erthyropoietin, a hormone that stimulates the synthesis of red blood cells in bone marrow.
What is enzyme synthesis?
the production of enzymes by activity including combining chemicals, which is the definition of synthesis.
A synthesis is the formation of bonds by removing water?
No, synthesis is the breaking of bonds that forms water, while dehydration synthesis is the breaking of bonds by removing water
What is tissue synthesis?
Tissue synthesis is toilet paper with a mind!
Which bone is the site of red blood cells synthesis?
bone marrow
What Bone cells are responsible for the synthesis of new bone tissue called?
osteoblasts
What is responsible for the synthesis of new blood cells?
Bone Marrow
What bone is the site of red blood cells synthesis?
osseous tissue
What process happens in the bone marrow?
Erythropoiesis (making red blood cells) and the synthesis of other blood cells.
How do you synthesis roseguardin in dragon quest monsters joker?
lethal armor + bone baron lethal armor + rip tide
What effect does aging have on skeletal muscles?
loss of bone mass from demineralization and brittleness from a decreased rate of protein synthesis
The most abundant cell type in bone is?
Osteocytes are the most abundant bone cell type comprising about 95% of all bone cells. Although relatively inert, they are capable of molecular modification and synthesis.
Where do you get frost crystal in kingdom hearts2?
if you are far enough on your synthesis you can just upgrade from a frost shard if not you can get it dropped from the living bone which is in the pride lands
What do the ribosomes do for the cells?
Its so it gives the cell shape, the same as a bone in a body, it gives it form. Edited answer: Helps in protein synthesis
What has the author Benton Danforth Tong written?
Benton Danforth Tong has written: 'Erythropoietin stimulated synthesis of membrane proteins in rat bone marrow cells'
What happen to kidney if blood oxygen decrease?
I believe it causes the kidneys to secrete more erthyropoietin, a hormone that stimulates the synthesis of red blood cells in bone marrow.
