Abstract

Aged and degenerated intervertebral discs are characterised by a significant increase in the number of senescent cells, which may be associated with the deterioration of this tissue due to their catabolic phenotype. On the other hand, carboxymethyl-lysine has been found to be accumulated with ageing in the proteins of the disc, evidencing the existence of oxidative stress in this tissue. Accordingly, here we investigated the effect of oxidative stress on the physiology of human nucleus pulposus cells. Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) at subcytotoxic concentrations transiently increased the intracellular levels of reactive oxygen species, activated the p38 MAPK, ERKs, JNKs and Akt signalling pathways and induced the nuclear translocation of NF-κΒ and Nrf2. It also provoked DNA damage and triggered a DNA repair response by activating the ATM-Chk2-p53-p21(WAF1)-pRb pathway, ultimately resulting in a G1 cell cycle delay and the decrease of cells' proliferation. Prolonged exposure to H2O2 led to premature cellular senescence, as characterised by the inhibition of proliferation, the enhanced senescence-associated β galactosidase staining and the over-expression of known molecular markers, without though a significant decrease in the chromoso...Continue Reading
