Fig. 3From: Silencing of Vangl2 attenuates the inflammation promoted by Wnt5a via MAPK and NF-κB pathway in chondrocytesKnockdown of Vangl2 attenuated IL-1β-induced inflammatory activation in ATDC5. a, b The knockdown efficiency of siRNA targeting Vangl2 was detected by Western blotting (a) and RT-qPCR (b). c Effects of Vangl2 inhibition on MMP3, MMP9, MMP13, and IL-6 mRNA levels were measured by RT-qPCR. d Western blotting for MMP3, MMP9, MMP13, and IL-6 in three groups. Densitometric quantification values were normalized for GAPDH. **P < 0.01, ***P < 0.001Back to article page
