Figure 7. Investigation of rat nucleus pulposus (NP) cell senescence after TNF-α withdrawal.

Figure 7

When TNF-α was withdrawn, SA-β-Gal activity (A), G1 cell cycle arrest (B) and the expression of senescence markers (C) in the TNF-α withdrawal group were still increased compared with those in the control group. The data are expressed as the mean ± SD (n = 3). *Indicates a significant difference (p < 0.05) compared with the control group. #Indicates a significant difference (p < 0.05) between the TNF-α group and the TNF-α withdrawal group.
