CAMP gene methylation inhibited ROS levels and inflammatory response levels in osteoarthritis articular cartilage cells. a The CAMP protein expression level in Control, sh-CAMP-transfected HC-OA cells, and 5-μM AZA-treated HC-OA cells were analyzed by western blot. b The comparison of the ROS levels in Control, sh-CAMP-transfected HC-OA cells, and 5-μM AZA-treated HC-OA cells. c The TNF-α protein expression levels in Control, sh-CAMP-transfected HC-OA cells, and 5-μM AZA-treated HC-OA cells were analyzed by western blot. d The TGF-β protein expression levels in Control, sh-CAMP-transfected HC-OA cells, and 5-μM AZA-treated HC-OA cells were analyzed by western blot. *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, ***p < 0.001, compared with Control
