Ergothioneine-Derived Carbon Dot Nanozymes Alleviate the Oxidative Stress Microenvironment to Delay Intervertebral Disc Degeneration

Nucleus pulposus cells (NPCs) age mainly because reactive oxygen species (ROS) build up too much. Excess ROS is associated with intervertebral disc degeneration (IVDD). In this study, we prepared ergothioneine-derived carbon dots (EGT-Fe-CDs) as an antioxidant nanozyme. EGT-Fe-CD...
