SEMA6D, Negatively Regulated by miR-7, Contributes to C28/I2 chondrocyte’s Catabolic and Anabolic Activities via p38 Signaling Pathway

Figure 1

SEMA6D was recognized as a negative regulatory target of miR-7. (a) Bioinformatics prediction showed an overlapping sequence between miR-7 and SEMA6D. (b) The results of dual-luciferase assay demonstrated the existence of a direct interaction between miR-7 and SEMA6D. (c) qRT-PCR indicated that SEMA6D level was down-regulated when there was an overexpression of miR-7, and SEMA6D level increased when miR-7 was down-regulated. indicates between groups. indicates between groups.
