Quantification of collagen VI intracellular retention as determined by flow cytometry. The difference between permeabilised and non-permeabilised cells was used to determine the level of intracellular retention of collagen VI. Collagen VI retention was definitively higher in the UCMD group compared to the BM and control groups (p < 0.001). The BM group demonstrated less intracellular retention than the UCMD group; however, the levels of retention did not always exceed control group levels (p < 0.05).
