Figure Lengend Snippet: Schematic illustration depicting the fabrication of the core/shell PCL-cECM (C/S PE) vascular graft and the cell seeding process. A novel bioreactor was constructed to culture rBMSCs under dynamic conditions to promote endothelial differentiation. Subsequently, the pre-endothelialized C/S PE (EC) was implanted into the rat abdominal aorta for biological assessment.

Figure Lengend Snippet: in vitro biocompatibility evaluation . (A) MTT assay shows enhanced proliferation on C/S PE at day 7 (n = 5). (B) F-actin (green) and Hoechst (blue) staining reveal improved spreading and confluence compared with PCL and control. (C–D) Quantification of F-actin area (n = 3) and nuclei number (n = 3) confirm higher cytoskeletal organization and cell density. (E) Viability assay demonstrates increased survival on C/S PE at day 5. (F) Live/Dead staining shows predominantly viable cells with fewer dead cells (n = 5). (G) Schematic summary of C/S PE promoting endothelial proliferation, biocompatibility, and reduced cytotoxicity. Scale bars: 200 μm. Statistical significance was calculated by two-way ANOVA with Tukey's test. ∗p < 0.05, ∗∗p < 0.01, ∗∗∗p < 0.001. “N.S” means not significant.
