Abstract:Background
Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) have been validated to exert vital roles in intervertebral disc degeneration (IDD). However, the effect of OIP5-AS1 on IDD is unknown. This research intends to explore the function of OIP5-AS1 in IDD.
Methods
RT-PCR was utilized to detect levels of OIP5-AS1, miR-25-3p, Collagen II and Aggrecan in IDD tissues and NPCs. Immunofluorescence assay measured Collagen II expression. CCK-8, EdU, and flow cytometry estimated the levels of proliferation and apoptosis. Collagen I… Show more
