Relative differences between times were compared with Wilcoxon signed rank test. Bonferroni corrected p value of 0.0056 was considered significant.

TEM showed affected cell appearance in day 3 and day 4 and beyond for aortic and pulmonary homografts respectively. Elastin appearance was affected at day 60 for aortic and day 21 for pulmonary homografts. Collagen appearance was affected at day 28 for aortic homografts, with no significant differences in pulmonary homografts.

The fresh and cryopreserved gingival tissue cells were cultured and characterized for surface marker analysis, CFU-f, population doubling time, and osteogenic, chondrogenic and adipogenic differentiation.

ELISA was used to detect inflammatory factors, including IL-6, IL-1β, and TNF-α. HE staining, Safranin O/Fast Green staining and Masson staining were performed to evaluate the morphology of articular cartilage, followed by detection of p65, COL2A1, ACAN, MMP13, and ADAMTS5 expression. The proliferation and apoptosis of primary knee chondrocytes were detected by the CCK-8 assay and TUNEL staining, respectively. Treatment with either PRP or sh-p65 decreased IL-6, IL-1β, and TNF-α levels in the peripheral blood of KOA rats and chondrocyte culture supernatants, increased COL2A1 and ACAN levels, and decreased MMP13 and ADAMTS5 expression. Furthermore, administration of PRP or sh-p65 exerted protective effects on articular cartilage, enhanced the vitality of knee joint chondrocytes, and inhibited apoptosis. Collectively, PRP inhibited inflammation, promoted chondrocyte proliferation and cartilage matrix secretion, and induced cartilage regeneration by suppressing p65 expression; these effects allow PRP to alleviate KOA progression.

The arrangement and spatial structure of collagen fibers were observed by light microscopy and scanning electron microscopy, the collagen type and collagen crimp period were observed under a polarizing microscope, and the collagen fibril diameter and its distribution were measured by transmission electron microscopy, from which the collagen fibril index and mass average diameter were calculated. The resistance of collagen to enzymolysis was detected by the free hydroxyproline test, and tensile fracture and cyclic loading tests of each group of tendons were carried out, from which the elastic modulus, maximum stress, maximum strain, strain energy density and cyclic creep strain were calculated.
