This study identified the hsa_circ_0074817-hsa-miR-508-5p-IGF1/CHEK1/CCNB1, the hsa_circ_0003600-hsa-miR-4741-BIRC5/OIP5/AR and the hsa_circ_0002702-hsa-miR-3158-5p-IGF1/AR as important regulatory axis of IDD, which will help us gain further insight into the pathogenesis of IDD and determine potential therapeutic targets. The gene discussed is AR; the disease is intervertebral disk degenerative disorder.
