Biochemical validation and proteomic characterization of the brain-derived decellularized extracellular matrix (BdECM) and vessel-derived decellularized extracellular matrix (VdECM). (A) Native and decellularized porcine brain and blood vessel tissues. (B) Glycosaminoglycan (GAG) and DNA contents of native tissues, the BdECM, and the VdECM (n = 3 per group; ****P < 0.0001; 2-way analysis of variance [ANOVA]). Data represent mean ± standard deviation (SD). (C) Characterization of the extracellular matrix (ECM) components of each decellularized extracellular matrix (dECM) using proteomic analysis. (D) Top 5 most abundant proteins in the BdECM and VdECM.
