In vitro histological evaluation of human chondrocytes loaded Sil-MA hydrogel for cartilage tissue engineering. Scale bars represent 1 mm (×4) and 500 μm (×10). Sil-MA hydrogel showed superior histological characteristics (cell organization and extracellular matrix distribution, including proteoglycan and collagen) of cartilage-like tissue with time in vitro.
