Objective To review the progress of the mechanisms of Wnt/β-catenin and nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-кB) pathways in the process of the intervertebral disc degeneration. Methods The related literature about the mechanisms of Wnt/β-catenin and NF-кB pathways in the process of the intervertebral disc degeneration was reviewed, analyzed, and summarized. Results Wnt/β-catenin and NF-кB pathways are both activated in the process of the intervertebral disc degeneration, and exist interaction. However, the specific mechanisms and interactive mediums of Wnt/β-catenin and NF-кB pathways in the process of the intervertebral disc degeneration are still unclear. Conclusion The mechanisms of Wnt/β-catenin and NF-кB pathways in the process of the intervertebral disc degeneration have to be studied deeply.
