Overexpression of SNHG7 promoted cell proliferation as well as inhibited cell apoptosis and autophagy. a The expression of SNHG7 was detected in OA cells transfected with control, vector and lncRNA SNHG7 by qRT-PCR. b Cell proliferation was measured in OA cells (IL-1β) transfected with control, vector and lncRNA SNHG7 after transfection 24 h, 48 h, 72 h by MTT assay. c Cell apoptosis was detected in OA cells (IL-1β) transfected with control, vector and lncRNA SNHG7 by flow cytometry. d The protein expression of PCNA and cleaved-caspase 3 were measured in OA cells (IL-1β) transfected with control, vector and lncRNA SNHG7 by western blot. e The protein expression of beclin1 and LC3 were measured in OA cells (IL-1β) transfected with control, vector and lncRNA SNHG7 by western blot. *P < 0.05
