(A) HEAVM co-cultures stain for eNOS (magenta) co-localized with CD31 positive (green) VECs at the surface of the scaffold (Scale bars = 50 μm). (B) HEAVM co-cultures had similar levels of eNOS gene expression as VEC only scaffolds and VECs on TCPS, and all had significantly higher eNOS gene expression than VIC only scaffolds. n=4 (C) VEC only and HEAVM scaffolds released significantly higher concentrations of nitric oxide byproducts (that were converted into nitrates) into the culture medium than VIC only scaffolds. n=5. *p<0.05 versus all others.
