Single-cell RNA-seq analysis reveals that immune cells induce human nucleus pulposus ossification and degeneration

Background and aimsDetermining the transcriptomes and molecular mechanism underlying human degenerative nucleus pulposus (NP) is of critical importance for treating intervertebral disc degeneration (IDD). Here, we aimed to elucidate the detailed molecular mechanism of NP ossification and IDD using s...
