Fig. 4From: The trans-well coculture of human synovial mesenchymal stem cells with chondrocytes leads to self-organization, chondrogenic differentiation, and secretion of TGFβAggrecan mRNA expression comparing SMSC in monolayer with the coculture of SMSC and CHDR without or with TGFβ supplementation. There is a statistically significant difference between both cocultures and the monolayer, but not between the different time points within each group.
