Analysis of chondrogenesis. a Representative macroscopic appearance of cartilage pellet. Synovial mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) were derived from four donors. In the 100% fetal bovine serum (FBS) group, no cartilage pellets were formed. b Pellet weight. Data are shown as means ± SD (n = 4 for each donor). *p < .05 by the Friedman test followed by Dunn’s multiple comparisons.
