Chondrocytes enable fluid exchange between the gelatinous layers of which the cartilage is made up of. This exchange provides nutrition to the cartilage as well as makes provision for the removal of waste materials.n such cases, cellular process of Autologous chondrocyte implantation is known to encourage the cartilage growth. Being metabolic power plants of the cartilage, the chondrocytes produce intercellular matrix constantly.
