From: Quantitative T2 mapping monitoring the maturation of engineered elastic cartilage in a rabbit model
Biochemical properties and mean T2 values of EC constructs at different time point. (A). total hydroxyproline (HYP), elastin (ELN), Glycosaminoglycan (GAG), COL 2 and COL 1 content of the engineered cartilage overtime. Data is expressed as the mean ± SD (n ≥ 3). (B). Scatterplots for the relationship between the biochemical properties and T2 values of cartilage. Solid line represents the linear regression line. * P < 0.05; ** P < 0.01; P < 0.001. # indicates statistical significance (p < 0.01) between the marked group and all other groups
