Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
The main study parameter involves the unique surface biomarkers and cytokines present in the medium of N1 and N2 neutrophils, which will be assessed using flow cytometry and ELISA. Additionally, the diverse stimulatory effects of N0, N1, and N2 neutrophils on the osteogenesis of BMSCs and the chondrogenesis of chondrocytes will be investigated through presto blue, ALP activity, qPCR, as well as alizarin red and alcian blue staining.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
The metabolites produced by N1 and N2 neutrophils and their spatial distribution will be examined using MALDI-MSI.
