Gene expressions of chondrogenic markers in hiPSC–MSC chondrogenic pellets. The expressions of COL2, COL10, SOX9 and AGGRECAN of hiPSC–MSC chondrogenic pellets (hiPSC-Chon) versus hiPSCs and hiPSC–MSC-like cells (hiPSC–MSCs), compared with hMSC pellets (hMSC-Chon) versus hMSCs. The expression levels of COL2, COL10, SOX9 and AGGRECAN were analyzed by real-time quantitative PCR relative to β-ACTIN. Bars represent means ± SEM; n = 3; *P < 0.05. hiPSC human induced pluripotent stem cell, hMSC human mesenchymal stem cell
