A Histopathological changes of OA and MC infiltration (toluidine blue staining). Arrowhead indicates MC. B Modified Mankin score (Median [interquartile range]). OA flare (n = 13), OA (n = 13), MC non-OA (n = 16), and PBS non-OA (n = 4). *: P < 0.05 compared with OA, MC non-OA, and PBS non-OA; †: P < 0.05 compared with MC non-OA and PBS non-OA; ‡: P < 0.05 compared with PBS non-OA. C Number of MC located in the synovium around the meniscosynovial junction. (Median [interquartile range]). *: P < 0.05 compared with OA, MC non-OA, and PBS non-OA; †: P < 0.05 compared with PBS non-OA. (Black bar: 50 μm)
