In vitro capillary tube formation assay. Photomicrographs showing the typical appearance of tubules formed by HUVECs in the Myogel-LMA, Matrigel®-GFR and ECMatrix™ after 12, 24 and 72 h (only for Myogel-LMA) with the original magnifications of 4x and 10x (a). The number of tubules formed (b), and the diameter of the tubules formed (c) in each of the three matrices is shown. Three wells were coated for each coating and three visual fields per each well were analyzed, the average value per well was used for statistical analyses. Altogether nine wells were measured in triplicate. Error bars, mean ± s.d., Mann–Whitney U test, * P < 0.05, *** P < 0.001
