according to the type of fibers it contains we distinguish between : -
hyalincart ( call type 11 )

.
- elastic (elastin) ④
-
fibrocact ( call type 1.) ④

Perichondrium :
covering ( envelope)
-
-
2 sub layers : •
fibrous layer ( dense conn .
tiss )
.
•
chondrogenic layer ( Chandrablasts)
-
vascular → nutrition + growth
-
not present in fibrocart . ✗ articular cart .
Cells :
-
embryogenic chondrogenic cells ( deriv from mesenchyme)

Chandrablasts ( inner part of
perichondrium)

, Growth of cartilage :
-
regeneration + growth limited in adults
-
2 ways for growth : -
Interstitial ( mitosis of chondrocytes)
appositional ( diff of Chandrablasts inside perichondrium)
-
.
Location of hyalin cart . :
-
airways ( nose , larynx
,
trachea ,
bronchi )
Functions :
-
development of bones ( fetal skeleton)
-
growth of bones lepiphyseal plates)
-
articulation between bones ( no perichondr . > avascular → synovial fluid for nutrition)
-
costal cartilages
Articular capsule > 2 sub layers : -

•
synovialocytes A ( remove debris fr . fluid , like macrophages)
synovialocytes B ( fibroblastic produce hyaluronan)
