Fig. 4From: miR-573 regulates cell proliferation and apoptosis by targeting Bax in nucleus pulposus cellsOverexpression of miR-573 markedly increased the expression of Bcl-2 and decreased the expression of cleaved caspase-3 and cleaved caspase-9 in degenerative NP cells. Protein expression levels of Bcl-2, cleaved caspase-3, cleaved caspase-9, caspase-3 and caspase-9 in degenerative NP cells were evaluated using Western blotting assay. ***P < 0.001 versus miR-conBack to article page
