Supplementary Fig 3 - Collagen fibrous scaffolds for sustained delivery of growth factors for meniscal tissue engineering

Supplementary Figure 3. Gene expression of human meniscus and synovial cells cultured without growth factors on heparin conjugated or nonconjugated collagen scaffolds. (a) COL2A1; (b) COL1A1; (c) ACAN; (d) SOX9; (e) COMP; (f) THY-1; (g) CHAD; (h) PDGFRβ; (i) CSPG4; and (j) ACTA2. Gene expression is relative to cells cultured under monolayer conditions. (P <0.05 among experimental groups, two-way ANOVA; and Line= P < 0.05 between groups, Mann Whitney test; *= P < 0.05, **= P < 0.01, ***= P < 0.001, ****= P < 0.0001 between each cell type., Mann Whitney test, n=6)
