Fas Ligand Exists on Intervertebral Disc Cells: A Potential Molecular Mechanism for Immune Privilege of the Disc

1 Jul 2002

Abstract excerpt

STUDY DESIGN: Rat and human intervertebral disc specimens were examined immunohistochemically. Reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) analysis was also performed on rat disc tissue to demonstrate the existence of Fas ligand. OBJECTIVE: To clarify the existence of Fas ligand on intact intervertebral disc cells. SUMMARY OF BACKGROUND DATA: The nucleus pulposus has been reported to be an...
