Gallic acid protects intervertebral disc cells from ferroptosis and alleviates intervertebral disc degeneration by regulating key factors of oxidative stress by Zaishi Zhu, Zeling Huang, Chaofeng Zhang, Bo Xu, Hua Chen, Shuai Pei, Baofei Zhang, Lishi Jie, Xiaoqing Shi, Yujiang Liu, Yuwei Li, Yuwei Li, Xiaofeng Shen, Xiaofeng Shen

“…However, the role of GA in IDD ferroptosis remains unclear.MethodsThis study explored the pathological mechanism of GA in IDD in relation to ferroptosis: (1) to identify ferroptosis-related targets for GA treatment of IDD using network pharmacology and molecular docking technology, (2) to evaluate the therapeutic effect of GA in an IDD rat model and changes in ferroptosis-related targets, (3) to investigate the changes of oxidative stress and lipid peroxidation products in NP cells after GA intervention, and (4) to study the changes of ferroptosis-related proteins and iron ions in cells and mitochondria after GA intervention.ResultsExperimental results confirmed that GA can treat IDD by reducing the degradation of extracellular matrix (ECM) and pathological changes in IDD. …”
