Current evidence for a modulation of low back pain by human genetic variants [PDF]

, 2009
The manifestation of chronic back pain depends on structural, psychosocial, occupational and genetic influences. Heritability estimates for back pain range from 30% to 45%. Genetic influences are caused by genes affecting intervertebral disc degeneration

Correlation between cervical lordosis and cervical disc herniation in young patients with neck pain

Medicine, 2019
Abnormal cervical curvature and cervical disc herniation are closely related to neck pain and should be taken into account before any treatment. However, studies have rarely reported on the correlation between cervical lordosis and cervical disc ...

Mesenchymal Stem Cell‐Derived Extracellular Vesicles Modulate the Course of Peritoneal Inflammation Through Metabolic and Epigenetic Regulation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
MSC‐EVs alleviate peritoneal inflammation and fibrogenesis by disrupting the H3K18la‐CCL2 axis and crosstalk between mesothelial cells and Ly6c2⁺ macrophages. Model cartoons are constructed using the Biorender website (https://www.biorender.com/), and a usage license is obtained. Abstract Peritoneal dialysis (PD), as a renal replacement therapy, relies

Transgenic mice overexpressing human TNF-α experience early onset spontaneous intervertebral disc herniation in the absence of overt degeneration

Cell Death and Disease, 2018
There is a well-established link between cytokine expression and the progression of intervertebral disc degeneration. Among these cytokines, interleukin-1β (IL-1β) and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) are the most commonly studied.

PACS‐2 Mitigates NPSC Apoptosis and Intervertebral Disc Degeneration by Preserving MAM Integrity via the SP1/LRRK2/Mfn2 Axis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study investigates the role of PACS‐2 in IDD, demonstrating that it suppresses the nuclear translocation of SP1, thereby downregulating its downstream target LRRK2. This reduces LRRK2‐mediated ubiquitination and degradation of Mfn2 through the JNK pathway, preserving MAM integrity and promoting NPSC survival.
