FIGURE 6

Mechanical properties of cells+collagen constructs, (A) the effect of LPS treatment on elastic modulus of cells+collagen constructs at 6 days postculture. Graph shows the scatter plot with all measurements; horizontal line shows the average for each group. LPS slightly decreased the elastic modulus, however the changes are not statistically significant; (B) the effect of LPS treatment on strength of cells+collagen constructs at 6 days postculture. Graph shows the scatter plot with all measurements; horizontal line shows the average for each group. LPS significantly decreased the strength. Minimum n = 3 (at least two measurements per replicate). Bars with different letters are significantly different (p < 0.05; Cohen's d = 1.52). (C) Representative stress strain curves for cells+collagen constructs, not treated with any inflammatory stimulants as well as treated with LPS. These graphs also demonstrate similar elastic moduli between samples and higher strength for no inflammation versus LPS‐treated constructs. LPS, LPS treated; No Treat, no treatment
