Mechanobiology of the intervertebral disc

Biochemical Society Transactions, 2002
Intervertebral disc degeneration has been linked in humans to extreme spinal loading regimens. However, mechanisms by which spinal force influences disc cellularity, morphology and consequently biomechanical function are unclear. To gain insight into mechanobiological interactions within the disc, we developed an in vivo murine tail-compression model ...

Modeling of Intervertebral Discs

Spine, 1980
A model with rotational symmetry of an intervertebral disc is studied. The nucleus pulposus is assumed to consist of an incompressible fluid, and the annulus fibrosus is modeled by 11 fiber layers with alternating fiber inclination. The spaces between the fiber layers are assumed to be filled with an incompressible fluid.

Estrogens and the intervertebral disc

Menopause International, 2009
Intervertebral discs are an integral part of the vertebral column. It has been shown that menopause has a negative effect on bone and on intervertebral discs. Estrogen has a beneficial effect of preserving the health of collagen-containing tissues, including the intervertebral disc.

Intervertebral Disc Arthroplasty

Spine, 2004
Review article of current knowledge of disc arthroplasty.To review the rationale for disc replacement, the general principles of design, and early clinical results.Disc arthroplasty is an emerging treatment for patients with disc degeneration. Its theoretical advantages are to maintain motion, decrease the incidence of adjacent segment degeneration ...
