Scale bar: 500 μm. (c) Macroscopic observation of cartilage defects at 8 weeks. Scale bar: 2 mm. (d) HE and Safranin O/fast green staining of repaired cartilage at 8 weeks. Scale bar: 500 μm. (e) ICRS macroscopic scores of different groups. (f) Modified O’Driscoll scores of different groups. *p < 0.05. Data were presented as mean ± SD of seven replicates
