1 Aug 2008
Abstract excerpt
STUDY DESIGN: Coculture of human nucleus pulposus (NP) cells and mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) using a noncontact system. OBJECTIVE: To investigate the interaction between NP cells and MSCs through paracrine stimulation. SUMMARY OF BACKGROUND DATA: Cell-based therapies have a potential role in the treatment of intervertebral disc degeneration. Upregulating the viability of NP cells and differentiating MSCs into...
