Cartilage is a non-vascular and flexible connective tissue located throughout the body which provides support and cushioning for adjacent tissues and bones.

Chondrocytes are the main cells in cartilage. The ground substance is chondroitin sulfate and the sorrounding fibrous sheath is called perichondrium. Three types of cartilage are there as below mentioned.

Hyaline, Fibrous, and Elastic cartilage.

Cartilage	Structure	Location	compostion of matrix	concentration of chondrocytes	strength of tissue
Hyaline	Simple structure and glassy apprearance	Found on many joint surfaces and the rib tips	Matrix is primarily made of type 2 collagen and chondroitin sulphate.	Consist of cells of angular form. Cells have straight outlines.	Very tough and have tensile strength
Fibrous	White fibrocartilage consists of a mixture of white fibrous tissue and cartilaginous tissue	Found in pubic symphysis, temporal mandibular joint	Thick layers of dense collagen fibres. Matrix contains type1 and 2 collagens.	Many chondrocytes are located within their lacunae and are spaced between the fibers.	Tough and dense in nature
Elastic	Contains elastic fiber networks and collagen fibers.	Found in epiglottis and the pinnae	Elastic fibres forms bundles which gives great flexibility	Chondrocytes are found in a threadlike network of elastic fibres within the matrix	Greater flexibility due to fibres.

Q:Select one application of tissue engineering on different types of tissues other than cartilage, bone and vascular. Define the properties of the tissue and explain what type of materials would be potential to use. How would you fabricate this scaffold? What would be possible techniques that you do in order to increase your scaffolds’ regeneration capacity? You should always consider the host response and immune rejection while designing your ideal scaffold.
