Fibrotic alterations in human annulus fibrosus correlate with progression of intervertebral disc herniation
BackgroundIntervertebral disc (IVD) herniation is characterized by annulus fibrosus failure (AF) in containing the nucleus pulposus (NP). IVD...

Isolation of Nucleus Pulposus and Annulus Fibrosus Cells from the Intervertebral Disc
Cells isolated from the intervertebral disc are often used for in vitro experimentation. Correctly separating the intervertebral disc tissue in... -
Intervertebral disc-intrinsic Hedgehog signaling maintains disc cell phenotypes and prevents disc degeneration through both cell autonomous and non-autonomous mechanisms
Intervertebral disc degeneration is closely related to abnormal phenotypic changes in disc cells. However, the mechanism by which disc cell...
