    Inhibition of Klf10 Attenuates Oxidative Stress-Induced Senescence of Chondrocytes via Modulating Mitophagy

    by Jie Shang, Nan Lin, Rong Peng, Ning Jiang, Biao Wu, Baizhou Xing, Shiyuan Lin, Xianghe Xu, Huading Lu

    Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most prevalent degenerative joint disease in the elderly. Accumulation of evidence has suggested that chondrocyte senescence plays a significant role in OA development. Here, we show that Krüppel-like factor 10 (Klf10), also named TGFβ inducible early gene-1 (TIEG1), is involved in the pathology of chondrocyte senescence. Knocking down the Klf10 in chondrocytes attenuated the tert-butyl hydroperoxide (TBHP)-induced senescence, inhibited generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS), and maintained mitochondrial homeostasis by activating mitophagy. These findings suggested that knocking down Klf10 inhibited senescence-related changes in chondrocytes and improved cartilage homeostasis, indicating that Klf10 may be a therapeutic target for protecting cartilage against OA.
