Recovery of dNP cells. a Schematic diagram of the indirect co-culture. b mRNA expression of the chondrogenic markers SOX9, collagen 2, and aggrecan in dNP cells. c mRNA expression of the hypertrophic markers collagen 10, collagen 1, and MMP13 in dNP cells. G1, dNP cells only; G2, Ad-MSC spheroids and dNP cells; G3, matrilin-3-primed Ad-MSC monolayer and dNP cells; G4, matrilin-3-primed Ad-MSC spheroids and dNP cells. Statistically significant expression at *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, ***p < 0.001
