Abstract excerpt
The incidence of osteoarthritis (OA) is strongly correlated with aging. It has been shown that the accumulation of senescent cells in the synovium precedes chondrocyte senescence and cartilage degradation, suggesting that synovial cell senescence plays a key role in OA pathogenesis. This study aimed to investigate the mechanisms underlying synovial cell senescence and its influence on intercellular communication...
