Characterization and role exploration of ferroptosis-related genes in osteoarthritis.

ABSTRACT: Osteoarthritis (OA), viewing as a degenerative aseptic inflammatory disease, is characterized by joint pain and inflammation that significantly affects the quality of patients' life, especially for the elder. Although rapid progress has been achieved in elucidating the underlying mechanisms of OA occurrence and progression, there is still a lack of effective clinical therapeutics for OA patients. Currently the most common treatments including drug therapy and surgical operations are not very satisfactory in majority of cases, so it is worthy to explore new remedies. During the past few decades, a number of novel forms of regulated cell death have been reported widely, typified by ferroptosis, with its prominent features including reactive oxygen species (ROS) elevation, lipid peroxidation,
