Effect of Gnd treatment on the content of hyaluronic acid (HA) of bCALF (A), bYOUNG (B), hTEEN (C), and hADULT (D) articular cartilage explants from S and M layers. Blocks were incubated (48hr at 4°C), rinsed and mechanically tested in PBS or Gnd. __*__ indicates p<0.05 vs. PBS/PBS/PBS control for both layer collectively. Data are mean ± SEM, n = 12−16 blocks from 3 bCALF animals, n=12−15 block from 3 bYOUNG animals, n=10−12 blocks from 2 hTEEN donors, and n=14−18 blocks from 3 hADULT donors.
