MSC were isolated by density gradient centrifugation. We investigated cell viability, intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) level, mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP), the amount of P-glycoprotein (P-gp) and ABCB1 transcripts, and methylation at CpG islands of ABCB1 promoter from both the femoral neck fractures group and the GC-associated ONFH group treated with or without the DNA methyltransferase inhibitor, 5\u2032-Aza-2-deoxycytidine (5\u2032-Aza-dC).<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results.<\/jats:title><jats:p>We observed that MSC from GC-associated ONFH groups showed reduced proliferation ability, elevated ROS levels, and depressed MMP when compared with the other 2 groups. Low levels of P-gp and ABCB1 transcript, as well as ABCB1 gene hypermethylation, in patients with GC-associated ONFH were also noted. Treatment with 5\u2032-Aza-dC rapidly restored ABCB1 expression. Analysis of general expression revealed that aberrant CpG islands\u2019 hypermethylation of ABCB1 caused sensitivity to GC and induced changes in the proliferation and oxidative stress of MSC under GC
