In the normal intervertebral disc, the nucleus pulposus exerts a hydrostatic pressure against the constraining annulus fibrosus, which allows the disc to maintain flexibility between adjacent vertebrae, while absorbing necessary compressive forces. The...
The population of senescent disc cells has been shown to increase in degenerated or herniated discs. However, the mechanism and signaling pathway involved in the senescence of nucleus pulposus (NP) chondrocytes are unknown.To demonstrate the mechanisms involved in the senescence of NP chondrocytes.Senescence-related markers were assessed in the surgically obtained human NP specimens.NP specimens remaining...
