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

A Fully Automated Pipeline for Vertebral Structural Assessment From Medical Images. Application Under Metastatic Conditions

open access: yesInternational Journal for Numerical Methods in Biomedical Engineering, Volume 42, Issue 7, July 2026.
We present an automated CT‐to‐simulation workflow to estimate structural response and fracture risk in metastasis‐affected vertebrae. Deep learning performs vertebral identification and segmentation, while CPD assigns geometry‐aware boundary conditions.

Effect of load frequency on trans-endplate transport of nutrients to the intervertebral disc

open access: yes, 2015
May 2015School of EngineeringThe model shows that the total nutrient transport to the disc can be augmented by a dynamic load. For healthy and degenerated discs, the maximum total nutrient transport is observed when the loading frequency of the applied ...

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.

A Biometrical investigation into the relationship between vertebral joint osteophytosis and body proportion biomechanics.

open access: yes
Occupational loading is a significant risk factor for back pain and vertebral joint disease. Although biomechanical principles predict that spinal loading is affected by body proportion, particularly with differences in upper to lower body measurements ...

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 ...
