Joint tissue remodelling and fibrosis. Despite similarities in a medial capsule thickness, b synovitis, c cellularity, d blood vessel density, e collagen deposition and f α-SMA-positive staining tended to be lower within joint capsule tissue from ALM-treated knees, compared to TXA-treated knees at day 28 following surgery. mRNA expression of the fibrotic markers, Tgfb1 and Xylt1, also tended to be decreased in joint capsular tissue of ALM-treated knees. Data show mean ± SEM, *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, ***p < 0.001
