Fig. 5From: MiR-330-5p inhibits intervertebral disk degeneration via targeting CILPInfluence of the miR-330-5p/CILP axis on the cell cycle, activity, and apoptosis of NP cells. MiR-330-5p mimic and/or pcDNA-CILP was transfected into NP cells. (A) Flow cytometry analysis was applied to test the cell cycle distribution of NP cells. (B) MTT was conducted to assess NP cell activity at 0, 24, 48, and 72 h. (C) Flow cytometry was applied to analyze NP cell apoptosis. *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01 vs. control. #P < 0.05, ##P < 0.01 vs. miR-330-5p mimic.
