There was a statistical trend for COL2b expression to be higher in hypoxic SM-MSCs compared to normoxic BM-MSCs ( p = 0.0641).
There was a statistical trend for COL2b expression to be higher in hypoxic SM-MSCs compared to normoxic BM-MSCs ( p = 0.0641).
In this study, there was increased expression of SOX-9 and COL2b in BM-MSCs and SM-MSCs cultured in hypoxia compared to normoxia although these increases did not reach statistical significance.
