Osteocytes lack several organelles that are typically found in other cell types, such as centrioles, which are involved in cell division. Additionally, they have minimal amounts of rough endoplasmic reticulum and Golgi apparatus compared to other cells, reflecting their specialized function in bone maintenance rather than protein synthesis. Moreover, osteocytes generally do not contain mitochondria in the same abundance as more metabolically active cells, as they are more quiescent in nature.
