Popis: Abstract Background This study aimed to investigate the potential mechanism of YAP1 in the senescence and degeneration of endplate chondrocytes induced by intermittent cyclic mechanical tension (ICMT). Methods According to the Pfirrmann grade evaluation classification, 30 human endplate cartilage tissues were divided into the lumbar vertebra fracture (LVF) group and lumbar disc herniation (LDH) group. Then, quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction, western blot, flow cytometry, hematoxylin–eosin staining, and senescence-associated β-galactosidase staining were performed. The difference in extracellular matrix expression between LVF and LDH endplate cartilage was detected. Second, the effect of ICMT on endplate chondrocytes degeneration was observed. Finally, the key regulatory role of YAP1 in ICMT-induced endplate cartilage degeneration was further verified. Results In degraded human endplate cartilage and tension-induced degraded endplate chondrocytes, the expression of YAP1, COL-2A, and Sox9 was decreased. Conversely, the expression of p53 and p21 was increased. By regulating YAP1 in vivo and in vitro, we can achieve alleviation of ICMT-induced senescence of endplate chondrocytes and effective treatment of disc degeneration. Conclusions ICMT could induce senescence and degeneration of endplate chondrocytes, and ICMT-induced senescence and degeneration of endplate chondrocytes could be alleviated by regulating YAP1 expression.
