The pathogenesis of intervertebral disc degeneration (IDD) is complex, and a better understanding of IDD pathogenesis may provide a better method for the treatment of IDD. Exosomes are 40-100 nm nanosized vesicles that are released from many cell types into the extracellular space. We speculated that exosome-transported circular RNAs (circRNAs) could regulate IDD. Exosomes from different degenerative grades were isolated and added to nucleus pulposus cells (NPCs), and indicators of proliferation ...[more]
