P2X7 Receptor Induces Pyroptotic Inflammation and Cartilage Degradation in Osteoarthritis via NF-κB/NLRP3 Crosstalk
Osteoarthritis (OA) is an urgent public health problem; however, the underlying causal mechanisms remain unclear, especially in terms of inflammatory mediators in cartilage degradation and chondrocyte imbalance. P2X7 receptor (P2X7R) is a critical inflammation switch, but few studies have examined i...
