Figure Lengend Snippet: ( A ) Alizarin red S staining revealed the presence of calcium deposits 21 days after the induction of osteogenic medium (OM) in the presence of CLG at varying concentrations (1 μg/mL, 5 μg/mL, and 10 μg/mL). The scale bar (⎯) represents 200 µm. ( B ) Pellet cultures of BM-MSCs were sectioned and stained with H&E, showing the morphology at 21 days after the induction of chondrogenic medium (CM) with CLG at varying concentrations (1 μg/mL, 5 μg/mL, and 10 μg/mL). The scale bar (⎯) represents 200 µm. ( C ) Pellet cultures of BM-MSCs were sectioned and stained with toluidine blue, showing glycosaminoglycans at 21 days after the induction of chondrogenic medium (CM) with CLG at varying concentrations (1 μg/mL, 5 μg/mL, and 10 μg/mL). The scale bar (⎯) represents 200 µm. ( D ) Pellet cultures of BM-MSCs were sectioned and stained with Alcian blue, showing proteoglycans at 21 days after the induction of chondrogenic medium (CM) with CLG at varying concentrations (1 μg/mL, 5 μg/mL, and 10 μg/mL). The scale bar (⎯) represents 200 µm.
