Degeneration of the nucleus pulposus (NP) is a major contributor to intervertebral disc degeneration (IVDD) and low back pain. However, the underlying molecular complexity and cellular heterogeneity remain poorly understood.

Degeneration of the cartilage endplate (CEP) induces intervertebral disc degeneration (IVDD). Nucleus pulposus cell (NPC) apoptosis is also an important exacerbating factor in IVDD, but the cascade mechanism in IVDD is not clear.

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 ...

Acute Herniation of Nondegenerate Nucleus Pulposus [PDF]
Acute herniation of nondegenerate nucleus pulposus material is an important and relative common cause of acute spinal cord dysfunction in dogs. Two types of herniation of nondegenerate or hydrated nucleus pulposus have been recognized: acute noncompressive nucleus pulposus extrusion (ANNPE) and acute compressive hydrated nucleus pulposus extrusion ...

Exercise Restriction Does Not Change Outcome in Dogs After Diagnosis of Acute Non‐Compressive Nucleus Pulposus Extrusion, Fibrocartilaginous Embolism, or Hydrated Nucleus Pulposus Extrusion [PDF]
ABSTRACT Background Acute non‐compressive nucleus pulposus extrusion (ANNPE), fibrocartilaginous embolism (FCE), and hydrated nucleus pulposus extrusion (HNPE) all present with acute to peracute onset of myelopathic signs in dogs, for which treatment usually is medical.

Clinical and magnetic resonance imaging characteristics of thoracolumbar intervertenral disk extrusions and protrusions in large breed dogs [PDF]
It has recently been shown that the fat-derived hormone adiponectin has the ability to decrease hyperglycemia and to reverse insulin resistance. However, bacterially produced full-length adiponectin is functionally inactive. Here, we show that endogenous
