This study aimed to reveal the specific role of early growth response protein 1 (EGR1) and nuclear receptor 4A3 (NR4A3) in nucleus pulposus cells (NPCs) and the related molecular mechanism and to identify a new strategy for treating intervertebral disc degeneration (IVDD). Bioinformatics analysis was used to explore and predict IVDD-related differentially expressed genes, and chromatin immunoprecipitation sequencing (ChIP-seq) revealed NR4A3 as the EGR1 target gene. An
