Fig. 8. Role and mechanism of Lnc Tmem235 in repairing early SONFH by BMSC transplantation.

Fig. 8

Lnc Tmem235 competes with BIRC5 mRNA to bind miR-34a-3p, thereby releasing the silencing effect of miR-34a-3p on BIRC5 mRNA and promoting the expression of BIRC5 protein; this inhibits hypoxia-induced apoptosis of BMSCs in the femoral head necrotic area to ultimately improve the osteogenic repair effect of BMSCs on early SONFH.
