Effect of pretreatment of platelet-derived growth factors (PDGFs) on chondrogenesis of synovial MSCs. a Representative macroscopic appearance. Synovial MSCs derived from three donors were pretreated with PDGFs, and then differentiated into cartilage pellets (n = 6 in each donor). b Histological sections stained with toluidine blue. c Wet weight of pellets. Data are shown as mean ± SD (n = 18). PDGFR PDGF receptor
