Activation of Hypoxia-Inducible Factor-1α Signaling Pathway Has the Protective Effect of Intervertebral Disc Degeneration
Intervertebral discs (IVDs) have poor nutrient diffusion, because the nucleus pulposus (NP) lacks direct vascular supply and likely generates adenosine triphosphate by anaerobic glycolysis. Regulation of glycolysis is mediated by hypoxia-inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α), a transcription factor that resp...
