Abstract
Numerous studies have investigated the role of collagen type 1 α1 (COL1A1) polymorphisms in musculoskeletal soft tissue injuries (MSTIs), yielding conflicting results. This study was designed to synthesize existing evidence and clarify the relationship between COL1A1 polymorphisms and MSTI susceptibility. We conducted a comprehensive literature search using PubMed, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, EMBASE, and Wanfang databases. Associations were assessed using odds ratios (ORs) with 95% confidence intervals (95% CIs) across five genetic models. Subgroup analyses were performed based on ethnicity and injury type. Additionally, trial sequential analysis (TSA) was utilized to assess information size and statistical power. We analyzed a total of 16 articles from 358 retrieved studies, encompassing 2094 MSTI cases and 4105 controls. Our pooled data revealed that individuals with the TT genotype of the rs1800012 polymorphism had a significantly reduced risk of MSTIs (TT vs. GG, OR = 0.53, 95% CI 0.35-0.82, P = 0.004; TT vs. TG + GG, OR = 0.54, 95% CI 0.36-0.80, P = 0.002). Ethnicity-based stratification showed a significant association in Caucasians but not Asians. However, no significant association was observed between the rs1107946 polymorphism and MSTIs, regardless of ethnicity or injury type. TSA indicated that the sample sizes may have been insufficient to yield conclusive results. In conclusion, our study supports the protective effect of the TT genotype of the rs1800012 polymorphism against MSTIs, particularly among Caucasians. However, the rs1107946 polymorphism does not appear to influence MSTI susceptibility.

Abstract
STUDY DESIGN A retrospective analysis of prospectively collected data. OBJECTIVE To assess the association between intervertebral disk degeneration and hip and knee osteoarthritis (OA) in patients with degenerative lumbar spondylolisthesis. BACKGROUND The co-occurrence of hip OA and degenerative spinal pathologies was first described as the "hip-spine syndrome" and has also been observed in knee OA. It remains unclear whether both pathologies share an underlying connection beyond demographic factors. MATERIALS AND METHODS Intervertebral disk degeneration was classified by the Pfirrmann Classification and intervertebral vacuum phenomenon. Intervertebral vacuum phenomenon was classified into mild (1 point), moderate (2 points), and severe (3 points) at each level and combined into a lumbar vacuum score (0-15 points). Similarly, a lumbar Pfirrmann grade was calculated (5-25 points). Patients with previous hip or knee replacement surgery were classified as having an OA burden. We used multivariable regression to assess the association between OA and disk degeneration, adjusted for age, body mass index, and sex. RESULTS A total of 246 patients (58.9% female) were included in the final analysis. Of these, 22.3% had OA burden. The multivariable linear regression showed an independent association between OA burden and lumbar vacuum (β = 2.1, P <0.001) and Pfirrmann grade (β = 2.6, P <0.001). Representing a 2.1 points higher lumbar vacuum and 2.6 points higher lumbar Pfirrmann grade after accounting for demographic differences. CONCLUSIONS Our study showed that OA burden was independently associated with the severity of the intervertebral disk degeneration of the lumbar spine. These findings give further weight to a shared pathology of OA of large joints and degenerative processes of the lumbar spine. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE 3.

Abstract
Trp3 allele in COL9A3 gene has been widely studied in populations with intervertebral disc disease. We identified a novel pathogenic variant in COL9A3 gene in a pedigree with multiple lumbar disc herniation (LDH). The proband was a 14-year-old boy who developed LDH at the L4/5 and L5/S1 spinal segments. His father, paternal aunt and grandfather were diagnosed with LDH at an age of 35, 30 and 23, respectively. By applying whole exome sequencing, a heterozygous missense variant (c.1150C > T, p.Arg384Trp) in COL9A3 was identified. According to the ACMG guidelines, this variant is predicted to be pathogenic. In addition, prediction tools found COL9A3 protein of this variant a reduced stability, some changed charge properties, and an altered spatial conformation. Findings expanded the mutational spectrum of LDH and contributed to the understanding of COL9A3 in the pathogenesis of LDH.

Abstract
This comprehensive review examines the intricate relationship between genetic variations in collagen-encoding genes and their implications in intervertebral disc degeneration (IVDD). Intervertebral disc degeneration is a prevalent spinal condition characterized by structural and functional changes in intervertebral discs (IVDs), and understanding its genetic underpinnings is crucial for advancing diagnostic and therapeutic strategies. The review begins by exploring the background and importance of collagen in IVDs, emphasizing its role in providing structural integrity. It then delves into the significance of genetic variations within collagen-encoding genes, categorizing and discussing their potential impact on disc health. The methods employed in studying these variations, such as genome-wide association studies (GWASs) and next-generation sequencing (NGS), are also reviewed. The subsequent sections analyze existing literature to establish associations between genetic variations and IVDD, unraveling molecular mechanisms linking genetic factors to disc degeneration. The review concludes with a summary of key findings, implications for future research and clinical practice, and a reflection on the importance of understanding genetic variations in collagen-encoding genes to diagnose and treat IVDD. The insights gleaned from this review contribute to our understanding of IVDD and hold promise for the development of personalized interventions based on individual genetic profiles.

Abstract
Low back pain (LBP) is a prevalent health problem worldwide that affects over 80% of adults during their lifetime. Intervertebral disc degeneration (IDD) is a well-recognized leading cause of LBP. IDD is classified into five grades according to the Pfirrmann classification system. The purpose of this study was to identify potential biomarkers in different IDD grades through an integrated analysis of proteome sequencing (PRO-seq), bulk RNA sequencing (bRNA-seq) and single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) data. Eight cases of grade I-IV IDD were obtained. Grades I and II were considered non-degenerative discs (relatively normal), whereas grades III and IV were considered degenerative discs. PRO-seq analysis was performed to identify differentially expressed proteins (DEPs) in various IDD grades. Variation analysis was performed on bRNA-seq data to differentiate expressed genes (DEGs) in normal and degenerated discs. In addition, scRNA-seq was performed to validate DEGs in degenerated and non-degenerated nucleus pulposus (NP). Machine learning (ML) algorithms were used to screen hub genes. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to validate the efficiency of the screened hub genes to predict IDD. Gene Ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) analyses were performed to analyze function enrichment and signaling pathways. Protein-protein interaction (PPI) network was used to prioritize disease-related proteins. SERPINA1, ORM2, FGG and COL1A1 were identified through PRO-seq as the hub proteins involved in regulating IDD. ML algorithms selected ten hub genes, including IBSP, COL6A2, MMP2, SERPINA1, ACAN, FBLN7, LAMB2, TTLL7, COL9A3, and THBS4 in bRNA-seq. Since serine protease inhibitor clade A member 1 (SERPINA1) was the only common gene, its accuracy in degenerated and non-degenerated NP cells was validated using scRNA-seq. Then, the rat degeneration model of caudal vertebra was established. The expression of SERPINA1 and ORM2 was detected using immunohistochemical staining of human and rat intervertebral discs. The results showed that SERPINA1 was poorly expressed in the degenerative group. We further explored the potential function of SERPINA1 by Gene Set Enrichment Analysis (GSEA) and cell-cell communication. Therefore, SERPINA1 can be used as a biomarker to regulate or predict the progress of disc degeneration.

Abstract
Intervertebral disc degeneration (IDD)-induced low back pain significantly influences the quality of life, placing a burden on public health systems worldwide. Currently available therapeutic strategies, such as conservative or operative treatment, cannot effectively restore intervertebral disc (IVD) function. Decellularized matrix (DCM) is a tissue-engineered biomaterial fabricated using physical, chemical, and enzymatic technologies to eliminate cells and antigens. By contrast, the extracellular matrix (ECM), including collagen and glycosaminoglycans, which are well retained, have been extensively studied in IVD regeneration. DCM inherits the native architecture and specific-differentiation induction ability of IVD and has demonstrated effectiveness in IVD regeneration in vitro and in vivo. Moreover, significant improvements have been achieved in the preparation process, mechanistic insights, and application of DCM for IDD repair. Herein, we comprehensively summarize and provide an overview of the roles and applications of DCM for IDD repair based on the existing evidence to shed a novel light on the clinical treatment of IDD.
