This study investigated the multivariate organization and temporal dynamics of selected mediators in a lipopolysaccharide-challenged in vitro canine OA cartilage\u2013synovium explant coculture system treated with platelet-rich gel supernatant (PRGS) and platelet-poor gel supernatant (PPGS). Tissue explants obtained from six dogs were exposed to PRGS or PPGS at 25% and 50% concentrations. Interleukin-1\u03b2 (IL-1\u03b2), IL-10, transforming growth factor beta 1, platelet-derived growth factor BB, and hyaluronic acid were quantified at 1 and 48 h. Principal component analyses (PCA) were performed using both individual mediator concentrations and biologically relevant mediator ratios, which were intended to capture the balance among inflammatory, regulatory, GF-related, and matrix-associated responses beyond absolute mediator concentrations alone, and principal component scores were evaluated using linear mixed-effects models. Mediator-based PCA revealed that variability was distributed across multiple dimensions, with significant treatment, time, and treatment \u00d7 time effects detected in different principal components. Ratio-based PCA concentrated a larger proportion of total variance within the first two components (81.1%) than mediator-based PCA (61.4%) and identified treatment- and time-related effects involving regulatory and matrix-associated mediator balances. Ratio-derived PCA showed greater structural stability across resampling analyses than the mediator-based approach. PRGS 50% generated the most pronounced multivariate separation, particularly within components associated with GF- and matrix-related mediator profiles. These findings indicate that biologically relevant mediator ratios provide complementary information regarding the organization of inflammatory and regenerative responses in this experimental system.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/gels12070615","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,7,9]],"date-time":"2026-07-09T10:16:22Z","timestamp":1783592182000},"page":"615","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Multivariate Analysis of Inflammatory and Regenerative Mediators in an In Vitro Canine Osteoarthritis System Treated with Platelet Gel Supernatants"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"12","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-6917-8451","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Jorge U.","family":"Carmona","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Grupo de Investigaci\u00f3n Terapia Regenerativa, Departamento de Salud Animal, Universidad de Caldas, Calle 65 No. 26-10, Manizales 170004, Colombia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-4954-1601","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Catalina","family":"L\u00f3pez","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Grupo de Investigaci\u00f3n Patolog\u00eda Cl\u00ednica Veterinaria, Departamento de Salud Animal, Universidad de Caldas, Calle 65 No. 26-10, Manizales 170004, Colombia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,7,9]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"289","DOI":"10.1097\/BOR.0000000000000162","article-title":"Biologic Basis of Osteoarthritis: State of the Evidence","volume":"27","author":"Malemud","year":"2015","journal-title":"Curr.
