Chondrocyte‐like nested cells in the aged intervertebral disc are late‐stage nucleus pulposus cells

open access: yesAging Cell, 2019
Aging is a major risk factor of intervertebral disc degeneration and a leading cause of back pain. Pathological changes associated with disc degeneration include the absence of large, vacuolated and reticular‐shaped nucleus pulposus cells, and appearance

Resveratrol attenuates inflammation environment-induced nucleus pulposus cell senescence in vitro

open access: yesBioscience Reports, 2019
Intervertebral disc degeneration is a disease identified as an inflammation response-participated pathological process. As a classical cellular feature, disc cell senescence is reported to be closely related with disc cell senescence.

14. Discogenic Low Back Pain

open access: yesPain Practice, Volume 25, Issue 7, September 2025.
ABSTRACT Introduction Discogenic low back pain can be severely disabling, clinically challenging to diagnose, and expensive to treat. Disc degeneration is characterized by disc dehydration, which diminishes the ability of the disc to distribute pressure, making it more susceptible to damage, and leading to annular tears, fissures, and a higher ...

COX-2 expression mediated by calcium-TonEBP signaling axis under hyperosmotic conditions serves osmoprotective function in nucleus pulposus cells. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The nucleus pulposus (NP) of intervertebral discs experiences dynamic changes in tissue osmolarity because of diurnal loading of the spine. TonEBP/NFAT5 is a transcription factor that is critical in osmoregulation as well as survival of NP cells in the ...

Injectable Chitosan Hydrogels with Enhanced Mechanical Properties for Nucleus Pulposus Regeneration.

open access: yesTissue Engineering. Part A, 2019
IMPACT STATEMENT A thermosensitive chitosan-based hydrogel was developed, which mimics the mechanical properties of the human nucleus pulposus (NP) tissue and provides a suitable environment for seeded NP cells to live and produce glycosaminoglycans ...

Eosinophils‐Induced Lumican Secretion by Synovial Fibroblasts Alleviates Cartilage Degradation via the TGF‐β Pathway Mediated by Anxa1 Binding

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 12, Issue 29, August 7, 2025.
Eosinophils play a crucial role in the progression of temporomandibular joint osteoarthritis (TMJOA). This study demonstrates that eosinophils, induced by OVA/IL‐5, promote Lumican secretion in the synovium, which binds to Annexin A1 in chondrocytes, inhibiting transforming growth factor β2 and Smad2/3 phosphorylation.

Developmental adaptations to gravity in animals [PDF]

open access: yes
Terrestrial animals have adapted to a constant gravitational stress over millions of years. Tissues of the cardiovascular system and lumbar spine in tall species of animals such as the giraffe are particularly well adapted to high and variable vectors of

The Effects of Vertebral Body Tethering on the Intervertebral Discs and Facet Joints: A Numerical Analysis

open access: yesInternational Journal for Numerical Methods in Biomedical Engineering, Volume 41, Issue 8, August 2025.
The tether pretension within vertebral body tethering is a key parameter that modifies the stress field of the IVD and the contact forces at the facet joints. ABSTRACT Anterior vertebral body tethering (VBT) is a promising technique for the treatment of adolescent idiopathic scoliosis.
