Homocysteine causes dysfunction of chondrocytes and oxidative stress through repression of SIRT1/AMPK pathway: A possible link between hyperhomocysteinemia and osteoarthritis

Emerging evidence has indicated that the perturbed expression of homocysteine (Hcy) may induce mitochondrial dysfunction and disturb bone metabolism. Sirtuin 1 (SIRT1) and AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) are two critical sensors that regulate mitochondrial biogenesis and have been recognized as...
