Role of hypoxia-related genes and immune infiltration in intervertebral disc degeneration: molecular mechanisms and diagnostic potential by Kai Zhou, Jiaxiang Zhou, XianJin Luo, Yan Chen, Jian Ao, Wei Wu, Bo Yang, Zhongyuan He

“…Co-expression and clustering analyses revealed two distinct molecular subtypes in IDD, each characterized by unique gene expression and immune infiltration profiles. Functional and pathway enrichment analyses also showed that these DEGs are involved in pathways regulating TP53 transcription, oxidative phosphorylation, and MAPK signaling, contributing to IDD pathology.ConclusionsHypoxia-related genes, particularly RCOR2, STAT3, and NOTCH1, play a significant role in the pathology of IDD and may serve as valuable diagnostic biomarkers and therapeutic targets, with distinct immune infiltration patterns associated with different IDD subtypes.…”
