Overexpression of ELF3 and underexpression of miR-136-5p were observed in cartilage tissues of traumatic OA. a The Venn map of the upstream miR of the ELF3 by database search via in TargetScan, miRDB, RAID, miRWalk, starBase, and DIANA TOOLS. The only intersected miR was miR-136-5p. b Binding sites of miR-136-5p and ELF3 in TargetScan. c Dual-luciferase reporter assay of the miR-136-5p binding to ELF3. d The expression of miR-136-5p and ELF3 in normal cartilage tissues and traumatic OA cartilage tissues examined by RT-qPCR. e The expression of ELF3 in normal cartilage tissues and traumatic OA cartilage tissues examined by Western blot. f Pearson’s correlation analysis of the relationship between miR-136-5p and ELF3. Asterisk symbol indicated comparison with the normal group or the cells transfected with agomir-NC. A p < 0.05 was considered to be statistically significant. The above data were measurement data and expressed as the mean ± standard deviation. The independent sample t test was used for comparison between the two groups
