Effects of SNP and SVT on MMP-1 and -13 expression in chondrocytes. (a, b) Cells were treated with the specific doses of SNP for 24 h and analyzed for MMP protein expression by western blotting (a) or mRNA expression by RT-PCR (b). (c, d) Chondrocytes were treated with the indicated concentrations of SVT for 24 h and analyzed for MMP protein expression by western blotting (c) or mRNA expression by RT-PCR (d). MMP: metalloproteinase; SNP: sodium nitroprusside; SVT: simvastatin; GAPDH: Glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate dehydrogenase.
