Histological staining assessment of the newly formed bone at 4–12 weeks post implantation of CPH and CPHI scaffolds in rabbit bone defects. (A) Staining with haematoxylin and eosin (H&E) demonstrates new bone formed in the CPH and CPHI scaffolds. (B) Masson’s trichrome shows matrix distribution (scale bar = 100 µm). (C) and (D) Show the quantitative data from (A) and (B), respectively. Data display the mean relative values calculated from three independent experiments (mean ± SD). * p < 0.05; ** p < 0.01; *** p < 0.001; * is the significance compared to defect control, # p < 0.05; is the significance compared to CPH group.

Abbreviations: NB, new bone; M, implanted material; HB, host bone; F, fibrous tissue.
