From: MiR-330-5p inhibits intervertebral disk degeneration via targeting CILP
Expression of CILP in the degenerated nucleus pulposus (NP) tissues and cells. All the NP tissue samples and NP cells were harvested. (A-B) Quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) was applied to quantify the mRNA level of CILP in the degenerated NP tissues and cells. (C) Western blot was conducted to quantify the protein level of CILP in the degenerated NP tissues and cells. *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01 vs. control. NP, nucleus pulposus; IDD, intervertebral disk degeneration of three independent experiments
