    Chondrocytes ( / หˆkษ’ndrษ™saษชt, - droสŠ -/, from Greek ฯ‡ฯŒฮฝฮดฯฮฟฯ‚, chondros = cartilage + ฮบฯฯ„ฮฟฯ‚, kytos = cell) are the only cells found in healthy cartilage. They produce and maintain the cartilaginous matrix, which consists mainly of collagen and proteoglycans.

    Chondrocytes restart proliferation in a relatively uniform manner within the cartilaginous template. As the cartilage enlarges, chondrocytes stop proliferating in the center, drastically change their cell morphology, and become special chondrocytes termed hypertrophic chondrocytes. How this initial hypertrophy is triggered is largely unknown.

    AC has an organized layered structure that is divided into four zones: superficial, middle, deep zone and the zone of calcified cartilage [ 1 ]. Chondrocytes in the AC proliferate and secrete extracellular matrix to maintain and sustain the cartilage. The cells themselves are separated from each other by cartilage matrix [ 2 ].

    Chondrocytes originate from bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs). First, aggregated BMSCs are capable of differentiating into chondroprogenitor cells. Then these chondroprogenitor cells become chondrocytes that undergo a series of differentiation processes and develop into hypertrophic chondrocytes ( Figure 1 ).
