The intervertebral disc has an intrinsic circadian rhythm, elimination of which leads to stress in nucleus pulposus cells (NPCs), contributing to intervertebral disc degeneration (IDD). Disruption or deletion of Bmal1 (a core transcription factor) results in complete loss of circadian rhythms, make mice susceptibility to IDD. However, the underlying mechanism by which Bmal1 mediates IDD is remains enigmatic, and whether there are other upstream factors regulating Bmal1 in NPCs. In our study, we ...[more]
