SEMA6D, Negatively Regulated by miR-7, Contributes to C28/I2 chondrocyte’s Catabolic and Anabolic Activities via p38 Signaling Pathway

Figure 5

Investigation of SEMA6D in chondrocytes with active catabolism or anabolism. (a–b) Chondrocytes were stimulated with different concentrations of FN-f, and the quantities of miR-7 and SEMA6D were measured by qRT-PCR. (c) The expression levels of MMP-2 and SEMA6D were estimated via western blotting after treating with different concentrations of FN-f. (d–e) Chondrocytes were stimulated with different concentrations of OP1, and the levels of miR-7 and SEMA6D were measured by qRT-PCR. (f) The expression levels of MMP-2 and SEMA6D were estimated via western blotting after treatment with different concentrations of OP1. , , compared with control group.
