Figure 6 (A, B) represents cytokines such as IL-1β, IL-17, IFN-γ, TNF-α and MMP-2 and MMP -9 activity of nucleus pulposus (NP) cells. The detail of the experiment is given in the methodology section. Statistical significance shown as * P<0.05, ** P<0.01 TNF-α inhibitor compared to untreated cells, # P<0.05, apigenin compared to untreated cells.
