Results are presented as relative mRNA expression levels vs. mRNA levels for ASCs cultured on a plain PLGA control (black line at 1).

One-way or two-way ANOVA tests, * p < 0.05, ** p < 0.001, *** p < 0.0001 relative to the PLGA control group

ASCs were cultured in osteogenic medium supplemented with 100 ng/ml rhBMP-2 or 100 ng/ml rhBMP-2, 50 µM PD98059 and 20 µM Phenamil. Results are presented as relative mRNA expression compared to mRNA levels in control cells cultured on PLGA with rhBMP-2 only (marked as black line at 1). ( C ) mRNA levels of selected osteoblastic markers in 3-day osteogenic ASC cultures treated with different doses of rhBMP-2 (25–250 ng/ml), Phenamil (5–50 µM) or PD98059 (1-125 µM); under fluid shear stress. Results are presented as the expression relative to osteogenic cultures treated only with ascorbic acid, dexamethasone and β-glycerophosphate. ( D ) Graphical hypothesis of BMP-2, PD98059 and Phenamil cross-talk in intracellular signaling. Average values ± SD are indicated. Two-way ANOVA test, * p < 0.05, ** p < 0.001, *** p < 0.0001 relative to the PLGA control group or between marked groups.

Figure Lengend Snippet: Fluid shear stress strengthens the osteogenic effects of rhBMP-2, PD98059 and Phenamil in ASCs cultured on SBG-PLGA composites. mRNA levels of osteoblastic markers after 7-day ASC culture on SBG-PLGA composites in ( A ) standard osteogenic medium under either static conditions or with fluid shear stress; and ( C ) osteogenic medium supplemented with 100 ng/ml rhBMP-2, 50 µM PD98059 and 20 µM Phenamil under either static conditions or with fluid shear stress. Results are presented as relative mRNA expression levels compared to mRNA levels in a control, static culture on PLGA (marked as a black line at 1).

Figure Lengend Snippet: Alterations in ATX expression on the mRNA level of ASC/TERT1 cells 24 h after stimulation with IL-6 ( A ) and IL-8 ( B ). The columns show the mean relative ATX expression (y-axis) in varying concentrations of IL-6 and IL-8 (x-axis) compared to YWHAZ and to the control group. Values were calculated using the 2 −ΔΔCT method, where 2 −ΔΔCT of control = 1. * p < 0.05 (Mann–Whitney U test).
