Neo-cartilage formation in gelMA hydrogel reinforced constructs. A) Cell viability and distribution in MDZ and STMDZ hydrogel composites at day 1 of static and dynamic loading conditioning in base medium w/o TGF-ß1. Viable cells are stained in green and dead cells in red. B) GAG content normalized to DNA of the static and dynamically loaded constructs at day 1 and 28. C) Schematic representation of the dynamic compression bioreactor. Cross section of the single station bioreactor system and stimulation units. D) Histological analysis of dynamic loaded constructs at day 1 and 28. Some MEW fibres are indicated with #. Scale bars represent 400 μm and 50 μm. NS indicates non-significant difference.
