Chondrogenesis assessment in the presence or absence of 39 μM BICA. qRT-PCR was performed to investigate the expression of a Coll II, b ACAN, c MMP-13, d Coll X, e ratio between Coll II and Coll X, f ALP, g Coll I, and h ratio between Coll II and Coll I in four different hydrogels at day 28. Data are presented as means ± SD (n = 3) (*p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, ***p < 0.001)
