Efficient Nonviral Transfection of Primary Intervertebral Disc Cells by Electroporation for Tissue Engineering Application

Abstract excerpt

Low back pain (LBP) is an increasing global health problem associated with intervertebral disc (IVD) trauma and degeneration. Current treatment options include surgical interventions with partial unsatisfactory outcomes reported such as failure to relieve LBP, nonunions, nerve injuries, or adjacent segment disease. Cell-based therapy and tissue engineered IVD constructs supplemented with transfected disc cells...
