Chondrogenic-specific mRNA of microtia chondrocytes by semiquantitative RT-PCR. (a) Microtia chondrocytes were cultured with (+) and without (−) PRP during 21 days. Chondrogenic-specific mRNA including Aggrecan and type II collagen was examined, and (b) their expression ratio was normalized with respective glyceraldehydes phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH). as PRP group compared to 1% FBS control group at the same time point, using paired -test.
