Release kinetics of TGF-β3 and compressive elastic modulus of scaffolds.

Notes: (A) Cumulative release values are presented as a percentage of the initial amount of TGF-β3 loaded onto scaffolds. (B) Compressive elastic modulus of DC-ECM and S/D scaffold loaded with TGF-β3 after 14 and 28 days of culture. Data are mean ± SD, n=4. **P<0.01.

Abbreviations: DC-ECM, decellularized cartilage extracellular matrix; S/D, hybrid composite scaffold of silk fibroin and DC-ECM; TGF-β3, transforming growth factor β3.
