Figure 4. Analysis of the entrapped HUVECs. (A) Growth profile of encapsulated HUVECs based on AlamarBlue® assay. The growth profile of the cells tracked up to 16 d showed increased cell numbers over time, suggesting proliferation. (B) Production of IL-8 by the encapsulated HUVECs displayed elevated secretion of the cytokine on Day 1 as compared with Day 4. Values are mean ± SD (n = 3). * P < 0.002 vs. controls without cells.
