What is the main purpose of synovial fluid is?
Synovial fluid is the fluid found within synovial joints. It acts as a cushion to the joint. The synovial membrane secretes this fluid as a response to trauma, as it adds extra cushioning. in addition to this, the fluid reduces friction between the articular cartilage which coats the end of bones within a joint.
Where can one learn more about synovial fluid?
Synovial fluid is a type of fluid that can be found in the body's joints. Information on synovial fluid can be found at medical websites including Web MB and Mayo Clinic.
What does synovial fluid do?
Synovial fluid is an ultrafiltrate of blood with additives from the cells of the synovium, such as the glycosaminoglycan hyaluronic acid. The fluid is continually recycled in a process of extravasation from blood vessels and absorption back into the circulation and interstitial fluid, with the synovial cells altering the make up of the fluid.
Is increasing osmotic pressure within joint a function of synovial fluid?
No, increasing osmotic pressure within a joint is not a function of synovial fluid. Osmotic pressure is the force that drives the movement of water across a semipermeable membrane, and it is determined by solute concentration. The synovial fluid's main function is to lubricate and nourish the joint, not to influence osmotic pressure.
