Viability and secretory activity of LG-associated cell types cultured on genipin-crosslinked dLG-HG. (A–L) An alamarBlue assay was used to quantify the viability of LG-EpCs (A–D), LG-MSCs (E–H), and HUVECs (I–L) cultured on dLG-HG crosslinked with 0.01-mM to 0.5-mM genipin or supplemented with respective DMSO concentrations for 1, 3, 7, and 10 days (n = 6). (M, N) Secretory activity of LG epithelial cells was determined by the β-hexosaminidase assay after 7 days in culture on dLG-HG crosslinked with 0.01-mM to 0.5-mM genipin or supplemented with respective DMSO concentrations (n = 6). *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01, ***P < 0.001.
