50% body weight loading reduces stature increases and lumbar disc expansion from 4 h hyper‐buoyancy floatation versus 15 min sitting upright

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Microgravity is associated with stature increases, back pain and post‐flight intervertebral disc (IVD) herniation. This study aims to determine whether 30 s seated 50% body weight (BW) axial loading is comparable to 15 min sitting upright in 1 g upon changes in stature, anterior lumbar IVD height (via ultrasound), passive vertebral stiffness ...

Effects of bed rest and immobilization on intramuscular and intermuscular adipose tissue: A systematic review

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Muscle disuse caused by bed rest and immobilization is associated with muscle atrophy and insulin resistance, which might be related to increases in intramuscular fat (IntraMAT) and intermuscular fat (InterMAT) accumulation. In this systematic review, we compiled evidence on the effects of bed rest and unilateral lower‐limb immobilization on ...

Canonical and non‐canonical functions of proteins regulating mitochondrial dynamics in mammalian physiology

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Mitochondria are highly dynamic organelles that continuously remodel their architecture through coordinated cycles of fusion and fission. This review examines the four key GTPases that orchestrate mitochondrial dynamics in mammals: MFN1, MFN2, OPA1, and DRP1.

TRIP8bnano peptide prevents cAMP binding to HCN2 channels alleviating pain‐like behaviors in rats with neuropathic pain

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend We tested the hypothesis that cAMP binding to HCN2 channels in nociceptors is a causal driver of neuropathic pain by using TRIP8bnano, a synthetic peptide we previously developed as a selective antagonist of cAMP in HCN channels. TRIP8bnano effectively abolishes cAMP potentiation of HCN2 currents in small‐diameter DRG neurons and

Secretome and Pathway Analysis of Stress Induced Disc Degeneration In Vitro

open access: yesJOR SPINE, Volume 9, Issue 2, June 2026.
Integrated secretome and phosphoprotein profiling of human nucleus pulposus cells revealed that IL‐1β and TLR2/6 activation induce a shared degenerative program, defined by consistent upregulation of IL‐6, IL‐8, GRO‐α, ICAM‐1, and MMP‐7 and convergence on NF‐κB/AP‐1 signaling.

Viscoelastic and Morphologic Changes in the Lumbar Intervertebral Discs of the 5xFAD Mouse Model of Alzheimer's Disease

open access: yesJOR SPINE, Volume 9, Issue 2, June 2026.
The intervertebral discs (IVDs) from mice with amyloid pathologies are larger, flatter, and exhibit increased energy absorption, making these IVDs more susceptible to damage. This heightened vulnerability may predispose elderly individuals with AD to disc injuries, accelerating IVD degeneration and spinal pain. ABSTRACT Background Chronic low back pain,

Radiomics based on MRI to predict recurrent L4-5 disc herniation after percutaneous endoscopic lumbar discectomy

open access: yesBMC Medical Imaging
Background In recent years, radiomics has been shown to be an effective tool for the diagnosis and prediction of diseases. Existing evidence suggests that imaging features play a key role in predicting the recurrence of lumbar disk herniation (rLDH ...

A Network‐Based Approach to Understanding Key Signaling Pathways in Intervertebral Disc Biology

open access: yesJOR SPINE, Volume 9, Issue 2, June 2026.
A literature‐based signaling network capturing the most relevant pathways in human nucleus pulposus cells was first constructed from curated biological evidence. The network was then translated into a system of ordinary differential equations to derive steady‐state solutions and define median baseline activity levels.

Patients With Chronic Low Back Pain Without Advanced Disk Degeneration Exhibit Gut Microbiome Dysbiosis: Evidence From an Age‐, Sex‐, and BMI‐Matched Pilot Study

open access: yesJOR SPINE, Volume 9, Issue 2, June 2026.
Chronic low back pain in patients without advanced disc degeneration is associated with gut microbiome dysbiosis, marked by reduced microbial diversity and altered bacterial composition. These findings support a gut–disk axis in which impaired gut barrier integrity and systemic inflammation may contribute to disc inflammation, nociceptive fiber ...
