Scutellarin reduces apoptosis of nucleus pulposus cells in intervertebral disc degeneration of rat models [PDF]
Objective To investigate the effects of scutellarin (SCU) on apoptosis of nucleus pulposus cells and the Janus kinas 2/signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (JAK2/STAT3) signaling pathway in intervertebral disc degeneration (IVDD) model rats.

Comparative Analysis of Dual-miRNA Mediated Stimulation of Nucleus Pulposus and Bone Marrow Derived Stem Cells for Intervertebral Disc Repair. [PDF]
Nucleus pulposus (NP) and bone marrow derived stem cells (BMSCs) transfected with miRNA‐149‐5p‐mimic and 221‐3p‐inhibitor were evaluated in goat monolayer, microtissue, and ex vivo organ cultures of mild degeneration. miRNA‐treated NP cells demonstrated an anti‐catabolic and pro‐discogenic response in organs, highlighting its potential as a ...

Osmotic adaptation of nucleus pulposus cells: the role of aquaporin 1, aquaporin 4 and transient receptor potential vanilloid 4 [PDF]
The microenvironment of the nucleus pulposus is hyperosmotic and fluctuates diurnally due to mechanical loading. Changes in extracellular osmolality result in cell volume alterations, responsiveness to such changes is essential for cellular homeostasis ...

Inhibition of PLA2G15 Alleviates Palmitic Acid-Induced Lysosomal Membrane Permeabilization in Human Nucleus Pulposus Cells During Intervertebral Disc Degeneration. [PDF]
LMP is responsible for lysosomal dysfunction in IDD. The lipid composition changes in the lysosomal membrane, mediated by PLA2G15, are the cause of LMP. The C/EBPα significantly promotes PLA2G15 expression under PA overload stress. Inhibition of PLA2G15 alleviates PA‐induced LMP by inhibiting the hydrolysis of lysosomal membrane phospholipids.
