The surface of an articular cartilage human joint, coated with phospholipid bilayers or multi-layers, plays an important role in the surface-active phospholipid lubrication, friction, and wear during human limb movement. The biological bi-layer is a thin polar membrane composed of two layers of phospholipids that have a hydrophilic phosphate head (from the outside) and a hydrophobic tail (from the inside) consisting of two fatty acid chains. These membranes are flat sheets that form a continuous barrier around all cells. Synovial fluid (SF) in the human joint gap contains glycoprotein, lubricin (proteinglycan 4), and hyaluronidase, i.e. an enzyme that produces hialuron acid and ±10% phospholipids. Because the mechanism of surface articular ...
