Three distinct types are distinguished. They are hyaline or vitreous cartilage, collagen fibrous cartilage or fibrocartilage and elastic cartilage or elastic cartilage.\u003cbr\u003eAt the ends of bones we find what is called hyaline or glass cartilage. This type of cartilage is also found in the bronchi, trachea and nose.\u003cbr\u003eThese glass cartilages are highly wear-resistant yet flexible.\u003cbr\u003eThey are structurally divided into cells (chondrocytes) and an amorphous matrix surrounding them. The amorphous matrix is interwoven with collagen and elastin fibres and contains proteoglycans, hyaluronic acid and glycoproteins.\u003cbr\u003eThe proteoglycans include aggrecan, which is responsible for water retention in the joint amorphous material. Aggrecan includes the so-called glucosamine glycans (GAGs), chondroitin sulphate and keratan sulphate. Its central backbone is hyaluronate (hyaluronic acid), to which these GAGs are attached by a central protein. *\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe nutrient turnover of cartilage is limited due to its low vascularity, so its regeneration is a slower process. *\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eScitec Arthroxon Plus capsule form is now hitting store shelves with a revamped formula.\u003cbr\u003eThe formula contains chondroitin sulphate, glucosamine sulphate and ChondrActive\u003csup\u003e®\u003c\/sup\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003ehydrolysed cartilage powder, which provides type 2 collagen.
