The giant cells of soft tissues and those of mineralized tissues (osteoclasts) have distinctly different cell surface receptors and ultrastructural characteristics. Recently, the removal of dead bone particles in a subcutaneous environment has been described as a prototype of bone resorption, and a major issue is whether the giant cells that surround these ectopic bone implants and the processes involved in the disruption of bone surfaces are the same as those in the skeleton. We have compared the cytology and ultrastructure of giant cells recruited to subcutaneously implanted isogeneic bone particles with similar features of osteoclasts in metaphyseal bone of young normal rats and mice. Giant cells on surfaces of bone particles 2, 3, and 4 weeks after implantation were multinucleated, had a homogeneous, nonvacuolated cytoplasm, and had a bone surface interface unremarkable by light microscopy. In a few cells randomly distributed, small cytoplasmic vacuoles were present and large vacuoles were noted next to the bone surface at high magnification. By transmission electron microscopy, folded membrane configurations forming extensive interdigitations with adjacent cells were prominent features on most surfaces of giant cells. In instances where these interdigitations abutted bone surfaces, configuration resembling a ruffled border were noted, but these regions were always part of two different cells when examined at lower magnification or in serial sections. Breakdown of bone particles appeared to be by phagocytosis of small pieces and subsequent intracellular digestion in electron-dense cytoplasmic vacuoles. Osteoclasts from these same young animals were smaller with fewer nuclei, had cytoplasmic vacuoles concentrated next to bone surfaces, and had characteristic ruffled borders and clear zones. These results confirm those of others that native osteoclasts and multinucleated giant cells on dead bone particles are distinctly different with respect to both ultrastructure and mechanism of disruption of bone surfaces.
