Accumulating evidence has suggested that intervertebral disc degeneration (IVDD) serves as a health problem deserving attention from worldwide, owing to the low back pain and even disability it causes. Cellular senescence, an irreversible process of terminal cell cycle arrest, plays an essential role in the degeneration of nucleus pulposus (NP) cells and IVDD with an unknown underlying mechanism. Here, we have explored the sen...

Thermokarst lakes are hotspots for greenhouse gas emissions across the Arctic and Qinghai‐Tibet Plateau. Investigating the vertical stratification of archaeal communities in thermokarst lake sediments is essential for understanding their ecological roles and contributions to methane production. Here, we analysed archaeal communities along a depth gradient in thermokarst lake sediments. Alpha diversity (richness and Shannon ind...
