CircERCC2 ameliorated intervertebral disc degeneration by regulating mitophagy and apoptosis through miR-182-5p/SIRT1 axis

TL;DR: This study provides the first evidence that circERCC2 could ameliorate IVDD through miR-182-5p/SIRT1 axis by activating mitophagy and inhibiting apoptosis, and suggests that circ ERCC2 is a potentially effective therapeutic target for IVDD.

Global, regional and national burden of low back pain 1990–2019: A systematic analysis of the Global Burden of Disease study 2019

TL;DR: In this article , the authors comprehensively analyzed the global level and trends of prevalence, incidence and years lived with disability for low back pain (LBP) from 1990 to 2019 by age, sex and sociodemographic index (SDI).

Spatially defined single-cell transcriptional profiling characterizes diverse chondrocyte subtypes and nucleus pulposus progenitors in human intervertebral discs

TL;DR: In this article, the transcriptomic landscape of 108 108 intervertebral disks (IVDs) was mapped using single-cell RNA sequencing of three main compartments from young and adult healthy IVDs, including the nucleus pulposus (NP), annulus fibrosus, and cartilage endplate (CEP).

Kindlin-2 inhibits Nlrp3 inflammasome activation in nucleus pulposus to maintain homeostasis of the intervertebral disc

TL;DR: In this paper , the focal adhesion protein Kindlin-2 is shown to be highly expressed in the nucleus pulposus (NP), but not in the anulus fibrosus and the cartilaginous endplates, in the IVD tissues.

TGF-β: the master regulator of fibrosis

TL;DR: Studies over the past 5 years have identified additional mechanisms that regulate the action of TGF-β1/Smad signalling in fibrosis, including short and long noncoding RNA molecules and epigenetic modifications of DNA and histone proteins.
Journal ArticleDOI

Non-specific low back pain

TL;DR: Two treatment strategies are currently used, a stepped approach beginning with more simple care that is progressed if the patient does not respond, and the use of simple risk prediction methods to individualise the amount and type of care provided.

Role of cytokines in intervertebral disc degeneration: pain and disc content.

TL;DR: An enhanced understanding of the contribution of cytokines and immune cells to these catabolic, angiogenic and nociceptive processes could provide new targets for the treatment of symptomatic disc disease.

TGF-β and BMP signaling in osteoblast, skeletal development, and bone formation, homeostasis and disease

TL;DR: This review summarizes the recent advances in the understanding of TGF-β/BMP signaling in osteoblast differentiation, chondrocyte differentiation, skeletal development, cartilage formation, bone formation,Bone homeostasis, and related human bone diseases caused by the disruption of T GF-β / BMP signaling.

TGF-β and the TGF-β Family: Context-Dependent Roles in Cell and Tissue Physiology

TL;DR: TGF-β is introduced as the best-studied factor among the TGF- β family proteins, with its diversity of roles in the control of cell proliferation and differentiation, wound healing and immune system, and its key roles in pathology, for example, skeletal diseases, fibrosis, and cancer.
