Surviving the Nucleus Pulposus Desert: Next‐Generation Strategies for Intervertebral Disc Cell Therapy

open access: yesJOR SPINE, Volume 9, Issue 3, September 2026.
ABSTRACTBackgroundLow back pain remains the leading cause of disability worldwide, with intervertebral disc degeneration representing a major biological contributor. Although cell‐based therapies have shown promise in preclinical models, clinical translation has yielded modest and inconsistent outcomes.

Human In Vivo Disc Mechanics in Flexion, Extension, and Diurnal Loading With Aging and Degeneration

open access: yesJOR SPINE, Volume 9, Issue 3, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Background The intervertebral disc serves a critical role in spine function, but with aging and degeneration the disc undergoes changes that alter disc mechanics, and degeneration is often implicated in low back pain. The objective of this study was to quantify and evaluate the impact of aging and degeneration on in vivo lumbar disc mechanics ...

Are Ceramic Cages an Option for Lumbar Interbody Fusion? A Comparative Biomechanical Numerical Study

open access: yesJOR SPINE, Volume 9, Issue 3, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Background The treatment of severe disc pathologies through lumbar interbody fusion (LIF) involves the insertion of an interbody cage into the degenerated disc space, together with a supporting fixation system. Conventional cage materials, such as Ti6Al4V and PEEK, present several limitations, most notably their non‐biodegradability ...

The Health Benefits of Exercise: Molecular and Cellular Mechanisms

open access: yesMedComm, Volume 7, Issue 9, September 2026.
Our synthesis integrates evidence on exercise‐induced regulatory mechanisms across multiple systems (musculoskeletal, cardiovascular, nervous, metabolic and immune), cross‐system, and aging. We also discusses adaptive regulation of exercise in extreme environments, along with the prospects and challenges of multiomics and AI‐driven precision exercise ...

Microbial Signals in Cancer: Dissecting Host–Microbiota–Tumor Interactions and Potential Therapeutic Strategy

open access: yesMedComm, Volume 7, Issue 9, September 2026.
Microbial signals from gut and tumor‐resident bacteria, fungi, viruses, and bacteriophages reshape immune and metabolic networks within the tumor microenvironment, thereby influencing cancer progression, treatment response. Therapeutic modulations, including dietary interventions, probiotics, antibiotics, fecal microbiota transplantation, engineered ...
