Specimens were processed for histological assays and qRT-PCR (t = 0, t = 5 days). b MF-AT were incubated with osteoarthritis SF and processed at 1 days and 5 days for histological assays and qRT-PCR. c Similarly, MSC-AT were stimulated with SF and analysed by viability assay (MTT), histology and qRT-PCR
