Talk:Synovial fluid

message: Isn't synovial / sinovial fluid thixotropic?  One might imagine that's what keeps the joint from blowing apart in a high-g jump/fall...  Seems it would be worth mentioning!

message: synovial fluid reduces friction between the articular cartilage...
I cannot find articular cartilage anywhere, is this right?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 65.113.122.130 (talk) 00:34, 22 September 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Yes, this is right.  Any anatomy book will have this information.  Articular cartilage is attached to the end of long bones that are part of a synovial (diarthrotic) joint; it is made of hyaline cartilage. Articular cartilage prevents bone from rubbing against bone.FishAmplexity (talk) 23:58, 4 November 2011 (UTC)

message: Can more information be added to the article on the negative effects of regular cycling on the synovial joints? Does long-term regular cycling permanently wear out the cartilage, synovial tissue, synovial membrane or any other synovial part of the knee joints? Cartilage does not heal from damage, so any damage is permanent. Wsmss (talk) 13:37, 7 January 2011 (UTC)

message: In teaching Anatomy and Physiology some "core concepts" are pretty much agreed upon. One is that epithelial cells are the secretory cells of the body. Synovial fluid is produced by connective tissue cells, not epithelial cells, so might be thought of as an exception to the basic rule. However, when considered more carefully, it might be pointed out that synovial fluid is NOT secreted. Rather, the hyaluronan and lubricin are extruded from cell membranes and "pull" water from interstitial spaces by virtue of their extreme hydrophilic nature. The fluid is thus not produced by glands, epithelial structures. There can be a great deal of semantic quibbling about this idea - connective tissue by definition includes ground substance that is produced by non-epithelial cells after all. So, should the idea that synovial fluid is different from secretions in general be incorporated into this article?
