Investigation of a mitochondrial protein linked with intervertebral disc degeneration (IDD) provides possible therapeutic targets for lower back pain. Intervertebral discs act as shock absorbers in the spine, and excessive load over time can cause disc ...

Protective role of the alpha-1-antitrypsin in intervertebral disc degeneration
Background Intervertebral disc degeneration is a complex disease with high prevalence. It suggests that cell death, senescence, and extracellular matrix degradation are involved in the pathogenesis. Alpha-1 antitrypsin (AAT), a serine protease inhibitor,

Aging, cell senescence, the pathogenesis and targeted therapies of intervertebral disc degeneration
Intervertebral disc degeneration (IVDD) refers to the aging and degenerative diseases of intervertebral disc components such as nucleus pulposus, annulus fibrosus, and cartilage endplate, and is the main cause of chronic low back pain.

Clinical and magnetic resonance imaging characteristics of thoracolumbar intervertenral disk extrusions and protrusions in large breed dogs [PDF]
It has recently been shown that the fat-derived hormone adiponectin has the ability to decrease hyperglycemia and to reverse insulin resistance. However, bacterially produced full-length adiponectin is functionally inactive. Here, we show that endogenous

Identification of Key Modules and Hub Genes of Annulus Fibrosus in Intervertebral Disc Degeneration
Background: Intervertebral disc degeneration impairs the quality of patients lives. Even though there has been development of many therapeutic strategies, most of them remain unsatisfactory due to the limited understanding of the mechanisms that underlie
