The ARC from the DDH group was remarkably thickened and had low miR-1-3p expression. A The successful induction of DDH in New Zealand white rabbits, as evidenced by X-ray. B–D The ARC in the DDH model was remarkably thicker than that of the untreated control limb, as evidenced by gross specimen observation, MRI imaging, and HE staining. Scale bar: 100 μm. F QPCR confirmed the reduced miR-1-3p expression in the DDH ARC samples versus the controls. (Data represents mean ± SD, n = 3. *P < 0.05.)
