Fig. 7

heMSC-microcarrier constructs of different microcarrier types increased cellular proliferation and improved chondrogenic output per construct and per cell when compared to their equivalent cell-only counterparts. a Construct diameter and DNA content per construct. b Glycosaminogycan (GAG) content per construct and GAG/DNA ratio. c Collagen II content per construct and Collagen II/DNA ratio. p values, *p < 0.05, ***p < 0.001, and ****p < 0.0001. All p values refer to the statistical significance of all heMSC-microcarrier constructs across distinct microcarrier types over that of cell-only counterparts at the indicated time points. ~All heMSC-microcarrier pellets except that of SphereCol and Cultispher-S
