Figure Lengend Snippet: In vitro evaluation of osteogenic differentiation on Mg 2+ -releasing piezoelectric scaffolds. A) ALP staining of BMSCs cultured with WH Gel and PWH Gel (Scale bar: 1 mm). B) ARS staining of BMSCs cultured with WH Gel and PWH Gel (Scale bar: 1 mm). C-F) RT-qPCR results showing the relative mRNA expression of OPN, RUNX2, OCN, and COL-I in BMSCs cultured with cryogels for 7 days and 14 days. CLSM images showing the expression of (G) OPN, (H) RUNX2, (I) OCN, and (J) COL-I in BMSCs co-cultured with WH Gel and PWH Gel (Scale bar: 50 μm). Data are presented as mean ± S.D. (n = 3 independent replicates). ∗P < 0.05; ∗∗P < 0.01; ∗∗∗P < 0.001; ∗∗∗∗P < 0.0001; NS, not significant.
