CVOCA maintains hyaline cartilage structure and ECM contents. Histological stains of a representative cross section of the CVOCA show that hyaline cartilage architecture (superficial, transitional, radial zones) and ECM contents (aggrecan, type II collagen) are maintained in the CVOCA. Stains from left to right: Hematoxylin & Eosin, Safranin O, Type II Collagen, and Type I Collagen. The black arrow points to the tidemark, marking the intersection of the hyaline cartilage and the thin layer of subchondral bone. The scale bar represents 500 μm
