Quiescence preconditioned nucleus pulposus stem cells alleviate intervertebral disc degeneration by enhancing cell survival via adaptive metabolism pattern in rats
Quiescence is a cellular state of reversible growth arrest required to maintain homeostasis and self-renewal. Entering quiescence allows the cells to remain in the non-dividing stage for an extended period of time and enact mechanisms to protect themselves from damage. Due to the extreme nutrient-de...
