    Nrf2 drives oxidative stress-induced autophagy in nucleus pulposus cells via a Keap1/Nrf2/p62 feedback loop to protect intervertebral disc from degeneration

    Intervertebral disc (IVD) degeneration is known to aggravate with age and oxidative stress is implicated in the pathogenesis of many age-related diseases. Nuclear factor (erythroid-derived-2)-like 2 (Nrf2) can...

    MiR-34a promotes Fas-mediated cartilage endplate chondrocyte apoptosis by targeting Bcl-2

    Apoptosis of cartilage endplate (CEP) chondrocytes is associated with the pathogenesis of intervertebral disk degeneration (IDD). Recent studies have shown that miR-34a is crucially involved in chondrocyte apo...
