Release kinetics of total protein, PDGF-BB, and TGFβ1 form CBM loaded with unwashed PSEC and washed PSEC. To reveal the release kinetics of platelet released supernatants of CBM we measured the total protein levels, PDGF-BB, and TGFβ1: Supernatants of CBM loaded with unwashed PSEC and washed PSEC were collected at hour 1, 3, 6, 24, and 48 (a). The supernatants were assessed with immunoassays for total protein concentration (b), PDGF-BB (c), TGFβ1 (d). The data points show the mean ± standard deviation relative to the untreated control. For total protein n = 8, for PDGF-BB n = 14, for TGFβ1 n = 6. The bar diagrams represent the AUC * p < 0.05
