Abstract:Understanding genetic indicators is a fundamental aspect to characterizing the pathophysiology of chronic diseases such as intervertebral disc degeneration (IVDD). In our previous spinal genetics review, we characterized some more common genetic influencers in the context of IVDD. In this second part of our two-part comprehensive spinal genetics review, we characterize the more infrequently studied genes that have pathophysiological relevance. In doing so, we aim to expand upon the current gene-library for IVD… Show more
