Activation of LAMP1-mediated lipophagy by sulforaphane inhibits cellular senescence and intervertebral disc degeneration

Journal of Orthopaedic Translation
Background: Intervertebral disc degeneration (IDD) is a major cause of chronic low back pain, involving lipid dysregulation and cellular senescence in nucleus pulposus (NP) cells.

Urolithin A Inhibits the Catabolic Effect of TNFα on Nucleus Pulposus Cell and Alleviates Intervertebral Disc Degeneration in vivo

Frontiers in Pharmacology, 2018
Low back pain (LBP) is a common worldwide disease that causes an enormous social economic burden. Intervertebral disc degeneration (IDD) is considered as a major cause of LBP.

PLGA/BK microspheres targeting the bradykinin signaling pathway as a therapeutic strategy to delay intervertebral disc degeneration

Communications Biology
Intervertebral disc degeneration(IVDD) is a common spinal condition with limited effective treatments available. This study aims to investigate the impact of poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid)/Bradykinin (PLGA/BK) microspheres on IVDD and its underlying ...

Investigating the regulation of the miR-199a-3p/TGF-β/Smad signaling pathway by BSHXF drug-containing serum combined with ADSCs for delaying intervertebral disc degeneration [PDF]

Frontiers in Pharmacology
BackgroundIntervertebral disc degeneration (IDD) significantly contributes to low back pain (LBP), yet effective treatment options are scarce. BSHXF, a classical traditional Chinese medicine formula, demonstrates dual pharmacological actions: tonifying ...

Physiology of Low Temperature-Modulated Postharvest Needle Senescence and Abscission in Balsam Fir (Abies Balsamea L.)

, 2012
Le sapin baumier (Abies balsamea L.), espèce favorite des producteurs d'arbres et de couronnes de Noël dans les provinces de l'Atlantique, est victime de chutes d'aiguilles sévères (abscission prématurée) après la récolte. Une série d'expériences ont été réalisées pour : (i) déterminer le rôle des racines, (ii) identifier la température et le temps d ...

Remotely sensed and ground measurements reveal intraspecific differences in early season needle unfolding and senescence, but lack of variability in litter flammability of Pinus halepensis

Forest Ecology and Management, 2023
Pinus halepensis Mill. is a conifer typical of Mediterranean pinewoods adapted to drought and fire. Although the timing of seasonal events in P. halepensis is strongly associated with these stressors and other environmental factors, needle phenology and litter flammability are insufficiently characterized at the intraspecific level. These traits can be

Stand Delineation of Pinus sylvestris L. Plantations Suffering Decline Processes Based on Biophysical Tree Crown Variables: A Necessary Tool for Adaptive Silviculture

Remote Sensing, 2021
Many planted Pinus forests are severely affected by defoliation and mortality processes caused by pests and droughts. The mapping of forest tree crown variables (e.g., leaf area index and pigments) is particularly useful in stand delineation for the ...

Needle longevity as a criterion of response to a climatic fluctuation (so called heat wave) in Scots pine populations at early phases of ontogeny

Journal of Forest Science, 2012
The paper presents results of an assessment of needle age classes in Scots pine partial populations in the period of three and five years after outplanting in a lowland site in relation to conditions created by climatic elements.
