Chondrocyte senescence is a key driver of osteoarthritis (OA). Mitochondrial dysfunction and oxidative stress can induce chondrocyte senescence. However, the specific mechanisms by which senescence contributes to OA progression are not fully understood. Here, it is attested that Dipeptidyl peptidase 4 (DPP4) is significantly upregulated in osteoarthritic chondrocytes in both humans and mice. DPP4 promotes oxidative stress and cellular senescence in chondrocytes through excessive mitochondrial fi ...[more]
