Overexpression of MCM3AP-AS1 promotes the viability of chondrocytes, inhibits apoptosis and inflammatory response in OA models in vitro. (a) qRT-PCR showed that the MCM3AP-AS1 overexpression model was successfully constructed. (b, c) CCK-8 assay showed that overexpression of MCM3AP-AS1 significantly promoted the viability of chondrocytes. (d, e) Transwell assay showed that overexpression of MCM3AP-AS1 significantly promoted the migration of chondrocytes. (f, g) Flow cytometry assay showed that overexpression of MCM3AP-AS1 significantly inhibited apoptosis of chondrocytes. (H, I, J) ELISA assay showed that overexpression of MCM3AP-AS1 significantly inhibited the levels of IL-6, IL-8 and TNF-α in OA models in vitro.
