SP1/CTR1‐mediated oxidative stress‐induced cuproptosis in intervertebral disc degeneration

open access: yesBioFactors, Volume 50, Issue 5, Page 1009-1023, September/October 2024.
Oxidative stress increases FDX1 and SP1‐mediated CTR1 production, which leads to increased TCA cycle‐related protein lipoylation and elevated copper flux, resulting in cuproptosis and intervertebral disc degeneration. Abstract Intervertebral disc degeneration (IDD) is an age‐related disease and is responsible for low back pain. Oxidative stress‐induced
