Cytokine‐Mediated Responses Across Endplate Subregions in Intervertebral Disc Multi‐Tissue Explants
ABSTRACT Background The endplate (EP) is essential for maintaining intervertebral disc (IVD) homeostasis by regulating nutrient transport to the nucleus pulposus (NP). Structural or biochemical alterations in the EP can impair this function and contribute to disc degeneration and low back pain (LBP).

Corneal transplantation: Restoring sight to the blind
Abstract Corneal blindness is one of the leading causes of vision loss worldwide. Transplantation of the cornea can restore vision and make blind patients see again. Corneal transplant surgery has undergone major evolution in recent decades with the advent of minimally invasive lamellar surgical approaches such as DMEK and DALK.
