Degeneration of intervertebral disc (IVD) is mainly a chronic process of excessive destruction of the extracellular matrix (ECM), and also is thought to be the primary cause of low back pain. Presently, however, the underlying mechanism of IVD degeneration is still not elucidated. Cellular loss from cell death has been believed to contribute to the degradation of ECM and plays an important role in...
Various mechanical stresses can induce apoptosis of nucleus pulposus (NP) cells and intervertebral disc (IVD) degeneration in vivo, but the underlying molecular mechanism by which the number of NP cells is decreased in degenerated IVD is still not elucidated. The purpose of this study was to investigate whether the mitochondrial pathway is involved in compression-induced apoptosis of rabbit NP cells...
