Figure 8. Quantification of total network length confirms that HUVEC sprouting is affected by microbead composition and pre-culture conditions.

Figure 8

Quantification of microbeads, with/without pre-culturing, embedded in fibrin hydrogels for 1 week. Endothelial network length increased significantly when cells were encapsulated with HA and FGN in AG microbeads. Pre-culturing had a positive effect on total network length in AG+HA+FGN microbeads only. (Lowercase letters indicate comparisons for which p≤0.05 (one-way ANOVA).
