In vitro evaluation to confirm endothelial cell protection effect of the BVS/EVL/mMH. (A) Confocal microscopy images and (B) cell viability of HCAECs cultured on the coated stents at 7 days. Scale bar indicates 100 μm. (C) Optical images (a) and quantitative analysis of the closed area (b) of the scratch assay at 9 h. Scale bar indicates 500 μm. (D) Fluorescence microscopy images of DCF-DA staining in HCAECs. Scale bar indicates 50 μm. *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, and ***p < 0.001 indicate statistically significant differences, respectively
