Overexpression of BNIP3 in rat intervertebral disk cells triggers autophagy and apoptosis [PDF]

open access: yesArchives of Biological Sciences, 2022
Excessive apoptosis of intervertebral disk cells and intervertebral disk degeneration (IDD) is the prime cause of low back pain. B-cell lymphoma 2 (Bcl-2) and adenovirus E1B 19 kDa interacting protein 3 (BNIP3), a member of the Bcl-2 family, are involved
