mRNA expression of regulators for bone metabolism in the tibias of mice in the diabetes-osteoarthritis (DM-OA) group, osteoarthritis (OA) group, and sham group at 12 weeks postoperatively. The quantitative results for real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). The data are expressed as the mean ± SD and were compared using ANOVA and the Student-Newman-Keuls post-hoc test between the groups. *, P<0.05 was considered significant. OPG, osteoprotegerin; RANKL, receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa-B ligand; COL-I, collagen type I; RUNX-2, Runt-related transcription factor 2; OCN, osteocalcin; SOST, sclerostin.
