sEVs_IL-1 effects on gene expression of catabolic genes in synoviocytes kept in control conditions. The figure reports the effects on gene expression of major catabolic enzymes (MMP-1, MMP-13, MMP-10, and ADAMTS 4) in synoviocytes grown in both monoculture (grey pattern, left graphs) and co-cultured with chondrocytes (grey dashed pattern, right graphs) in CTR, sEVs, or sEVs_IL-1 conditions. Data were normalized to GAPDH. Each graph reports data collected from 3 independent sEVs samples and expressed as . The means of the groups were compared by ANOVA, followed by Tukey’s post hoc test, with , , and .
