Question

Major Differences of Chondrocytes and Chondroblasts
What is the difference between Chondrocytes and Chondroblasts?

Answer 1

Chondrocytes are the only cells found in healthy cartilage. They produce and maintain the cartilaginous matrix, which consists mainly of collagen and proteoglycans.


Chondroblasts, or perichondrial cells, is the name given to mesenchymal progenitor cells in situ which, from endochondral ossification, will form chondrocytes in the growing cartilage matrix. Another name for them is subchondral cortico-spongious progenitors. They have euchromatic nuclei and stain by basic dyes.

HELLO FRIEND HERE IS YOUR ANSWER,,,,,,,,

_______________________________________

Chondroblasts are some pre-maturely young cartilage cells which are very small in structure and are often flat at their surfaces and by body shapes, they contain relatively small surfactant projectors called filopodia, they are stem cells that can differentiate into a major organ that secrete matrix fluids and chondrocytes. Since they are stem cells they show good response towards differentiation of cells which nurtures proper growth. More terminologically it's pretty much obvious that they're surrounding the perichondrium (connective tissue) including some mature MSCs or Mesenchymal stem cells, therefore a stem cell.

Chondrocytes are little larger when compared to Chondroblasts and they increase in their total size after maturing stage by stage (or simply said "aging"), they are more mature than chondrocytes and are more circular in shape still they've some surfactant projections , which are not pretty large in numbers. When comparing them via metabolically active functioning Chondrocytes are a better choice. Articulated cartilage surrounding the enriched matrix structure (extracellular) are where the Chondrocytes are getting evenly filled out and distributed in small groups or in large groups or more specifically in colonies residing in matrix where lacunae (Singlular: Lacuna) are found. Chondrocytes are the main components which allow the secretion of matrix cartilage build-up structures like glycoproteins are one of them second is collagen and third matrix cartilage structure (which is secreted) is proteoglycans.

Cartilage lacunae or Cartilage lacuna or simply lacunae or lacuna. Chondrocytes are especially filled with lacuna or lacunae and lie within it. They are interconnected and branched by an osteocyte and canaliculi respectively. Only one osteocyte are contained inside the lacunae. By the process of cell differentiation, cell division and re-differentiation they're gonna've multiply cells from one to two to four or even eight cells in total. They're arranged in concentric circular manner inside the matrix.
