Oxidative stress induces senescence in chondrocytes
31 Jan 2011
Abstract excerpt
Cellular senescence is a program activated during diverse situations of cell stress. Chondrocytes differ from other somatic cells as articular cartilage is an avascular tissue. The effects of oxidative stress on chondrocytes are still unknown.
