Abstract

To investigate the regulatory role and molecular mechanisms of TSPAN9-mediated mitocytosis in an interleukin-1β (IL-1β)-induced rat chondrocyte senescence model, and to identify novel therapeutic targets for osteoarthritis (OA).

Research summary

The paper investigates the protective effect of TSPAN9-mediated mitocytosis in chondrocyte senescence induced by IL-1β. This research is relevant as it explores mechanisms that could address cellular senescence, a fundamental aspect of aging and age-related diseases like osteoarthritis.
