Figure 3. Inhibit JNK/c-Jun signaling pathway increase Sox-9 and COL2 expression.

Figure 3

(A) Western blot was used to evaluate the change of JNK, p-JNK, c-Jun, p-c-Jun, Sox-9 and COL2 protein levels in different groups. (B) Relative levels JNK, c-Jun, Sox-9 and COL2mRNA in the chondrocytes. The 2−ΔΔCt method was adopted with GAPDH as the reference gene. Bars represent the mean ± SD of each group (n = 6). As a control, the membrane was stripped and incubated with β-actin. Significant differences between the groups are marked with asterisks (*P< 0.05, **P< 0.01); ns: no statistical significance.
