There are three types of cartilage tissue:
*'''Hyaline cartilage''' - tissue about 2-4 mm thick, composed mainly of type II and type IX collagen, proteoglycans, chondrocytes and water (65-80%). Hyaline cartilage constitute a component of articular cartilage, larynx, cartilaginous rings of the trachea and bronchi, nasal septum <ref>Alice J. Sophia Fox M, Asheesh Bedi, MD, and Scott A. Rodeo, MD. The Basic Science of Articular Cartilage. Sports Health. 2009:461-8 </ref>.
*'''Fibrocartilage''' - consists of a very dense network of collagen fibers (mainly type I collagen) and is a structural component of tendons, ligaments, pubic symphysis and intervertebral cartilage <ref>Benjamin M, Ralphs JR. Biology of fibrocartilage cells. Int Rev Cytol. 2004;233:1-45. doi: 10.1016/S0074-7696(04)33001-9 </ref>.
*'''Elastic cartilage''' - mainly composed of elastin and type II collagen, and is characterized by high flexibility and deformability. The elastic cartilage constitute a component of ear canal, Eustachian tube, epiglottis and small cartilages of the larynx.
