Figure 6From: Influence of the gel thickness on in vivo hyaline cartilage regeneration induced by double-network gel implanted at the bottom of a large osteochondral defect: Short-term results Gene expression of type-2 collagen, aggrecan, and Sox9 in the regenerated tissue of 2-mm depth implantation at 4 weeks. The degree of expression of type-2 collagen mRNAs was significantly greater in the regenerated tissue in G-II and III than that in G-IV.Back to article page
