The molecular basis of intervertebral disk degeneration
Orthopedic Clinics of North America, 2003 At present, the molecular evidence involved in the degeneration of the IVD is still in its primitive stage. In general, however, intrinsic, extrinsic, and generic factors all have shown a contribution to the initiation of degeneration. These factors may stimulate cytokines and directly or indirectly generate the cellular events thus far detected and ...

Chronic Unpredictable Stress Induces Intervertebral Disk Cell Apoptosis and Degeneration
Global Spine Journal, 2012 Introduction Animal model was used to study the effects of chronic unpredictable stress (CUS) on the intervertebral disk (IVD). Stress is a predictor for low back disability in persons with earlier low back pain (LBP) and LBP is most common in the early ...

Correlation between MMP-3 Activity and Intervertebral Disk Degeneration According to Radiologic Data
Global Spine Journal, 2012 Introduction During the degeneration process, tissue resorption causes a progressive and important decrease in intervertebral disk height. The main characteristics of disk degeneration are intradiscal clefts and teardrops.

Effect of Spino-Pelvic Sagittal Balance on Degree of Disk Degeneration in the Lumbar Spine
Global Spine Journal, 2012 Introduction Recent studies have focused on spino-pelvic sagittal balance. Changes in sagittal balance could alter the load on the spine and may affect spinal mobility.
