The origin of the bioelectric potentials in unstressed living bones is still an open question. Blood-flow in vessels, stationary potentials on peripheral nerves, muscle injury potentials, and viability of bone cells are claimed to be possible sites of origin of the electric potentials recorded on bone surface. The present data show that the topographic quantitative distribution of tetracycline labeling at sequential levels of rabbit tibia and the distribution pattern of the bioelectric potentials in this bone are significantly superimposable. This coincidence of bone formation rates and bioelectric potentials seems to support the view that the latter are in some way linked with the laying down of new bone.
未受应力作用的活骨中生物电电位的起源仍是一个悬而未决的问题。血管中的血流、外周神经上的静息电位、肌肉损伤电位以及骨细胞的活力被认为是骨表面记录到的电位可能的起源部位。目前的数据表明，兔胫骨连续层面上四环素标记的地形定量分布与该骨中生物电电位的分布模式具有显著的叠加性。骨形成速率与生物电电位的这种一致性似乎支持了这样一种观点，即生物电电位在某种程度上与新骨的沉积有关。
