The perichondriumis
The perichondriumis a vascular collagenous connective tissue that surrounds the cartilage and its vessels supply nutrients to the cells of cartilage.
Chondrocytes
are the only cells found in healthy cartilage. They produce and maintain the cartilaginous matrix, which consists mainly of collagen and proteoglycans
Chondroblasts
Sie produzieren alle Komponenten der Knorpelgrundsubstanz (Knorpelmatrix) wie Typ-II-Kollagen und Glykosaminoglykane (vor allem Chondroitinsulfat, Keratansulfat und Hyaluronsäure) und geben sie an die Umgebung ab
Chondrogenesis
Chondrogenesis is the process by which cartilage is developed
Osteochondroprogenitor cells
Osteochondroprogenitor cells are progenitor cells that arise from mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) in the bone marrow. They have the ability to differentiate into osteoblasts or chondrocytes depending on the signalling molecules they are exposed to, giving rise to either bone or cartilage respectively. Osteochondroprogenitor cells are important for bone formation and maintenance.
Osteocytes
Osteocytes are networked to each other via long cytoplasmic extensions that occupy tiny canals called canaliculi, which are used for exchange of nutrients and waste through gap junctions.
osteoclast
An osteoclast (from the Greek words for "bone" (ὀστέον), and "broken" (κλαστός)) is a type of bone cell that breaks down bone tissue
bone types
Compact bone (a firm, dense outer layer)
Cancellous (spongy) bone
synarthrosis
a solid joint, synarthrosis, which allows little or no movement
diarthrosis
a synovial joint, diarthrosis, which allows movement
