The Relationship between HELQ Expression and Intervertebral Disc Degeneration

open access: yesGlobal Spine Journal, 2016
Introduction Degeneration of the intervertebral disc, mainly of nucleus pulposus, is strongly implicated as a cause of low back pain. However, the mechanism of disc degeneration is not clear.

Drug‐Induced Cuproptosis Defines the Therapeutic Window of Celecoxib in Intervertebral Disc Degeneration via the HSP90‐RBX1 Axis

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study reveals the dual role of celecoxib in intervertebral disc degeneration. While low concentrations are protective, high concentrations induce toxicity by upregulating HSP90, which synergizes with USP15 to deubiquitinate and stabilize RBX1. This leads to degradation of COMMD1/ATP7B, copper dyshomeostasis, and ultimately, cuproptosis.

PENETRATION OF CEFOTAXIME INTO INTERVERTEBRAL DISCS REMOVED FROM PATIENTS UNDERGOING DISCECTOMY [PDF]

open access: yesBasrah Journal of Surgery, 2019
The intervertebral disc is an avascular tissue, and penetration of antibiotics occurs by passive diffusion. Cefotaxime penetration has not been well studied.

Biomechanical Effects of Different Sitting Postures and Physiologic Movements on the Lumbar Spine: A Finite Element Study

open access: yesBioengineering, 2023
This study used the finite element method(FEM) to investigate how pressure on the lumbar spine changes during dynamic movements in different postures: standing, erect sitting on a chair, slumped sitting on a chair, and sitting on the floor.

Measurement and evaluation of surgical models of spinal fusion in mice, rats, and rabbits

open access: yesAnimal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
In this study, spinal fusion models in mice, rats and rabbits are compared and discussed. The results show that after comparing the anatomical structure and the complexity of surgical operation, among the three experimental animals in this study, the rabbit as an experimental animal is superior to the mouse and the rat in the establishment of spinal ...

A photopolymerized composite hydrogel and surgical implanting tool for a nucleus pulposus replacement [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Nucleus pulposus replacements have been subjected to highly controversial discussions over the last 40 years. Their use has not yet resulted in a positive outcome to treat herniated disc or degenerated disc disease.

Dynamic behavior of the nucleus pulposus within the intervertebral disc loading: a systematic review and meta-analysis exploring the concept of dynamic disc model

open access: yesFrontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology
IntroductionThe dynamic disc model (DDM) is a theoretical framework in spine mechanics that theorizes the behavior of the nucleus pulposus within the intervertebral disc under various loads.

Retrieval Practice Through an Integrated Anatomy Laboratory Experience in a Doctor of Physical Therapy Curriculum

open access: yesClinical Anatomy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Gross anatomy is a foundational first‐year component of Doctor of Physical Therapy (DPT) curriculum, with limited future vertical integration. Retrieval practice and spaced learning to enhance retention are rarely embedded in second‐year DPT coursework.
