Mendelian randomization analysis identifies HLA‐A and AP2M1 as genetic biomarkers linked to immune–endocytic crosstalk in intervertebral disc degeneration

Journal of Cell Communication and Signaling, Volume 20, Issue 1, March 2026.
HLA‐A and AP2M1 are identified as key endocytosis‐related biomarkers that modulate immune–endocytic crosstalk via mTOR signaling to regulate cell survival, immune infiltration, and the progression of intervertebral disc degeneration. Abstract Intervertebral disc degeneration (IVDD) is a major contributor to chronic spinal disorders, yet the role of ...
