Abstract

The cartilage lacks histological means to transmit sensations but, at the cellular level [1], it has a (unique) [2] prosperity to transmit mechanical stresses to bone tissue and particularly to the subchondral plate. Apart from lubrication, the main function of cartilage is not to absorb energy through deformation but to distribute the load evenly to the subchondral plate. The deformation of the cartilage is not an immediate process but take time and requires a static charge and through a mechanism based on the distribution of liquid (ECM). The subchondral bone is responsible for transforming the mechanical signals that come from cartilage to neurological signals.
