Abstract
It is well known that physiological forces are essential for the maintenance of normal composition and structure of articular cartilage. Although some of the mechanisms of mechanotransduction are known today, there are certainly many others left unrevealed. In order to understand the complicated systems present in articular cartilage, we have to bring together the data from all fields of cartilage mechanobiology. The 3rd Symposium on Mechanobiology of Cartilage and Chondrocyte was a good effort towards that goal.
