Angiotensin II Type 1 Receptor Antagonist Losartan Inhibits TNF-α Induced Inflammation and Degeneration Processes in Human Nucleus Pulposus Cells

2020-11-17

Abstract excerpt

Our recent study detected the expression of a tissue Renin-Angiotensin System (tRAS) in human intervertebral discs (IVDs). The present study sought to investigate the impact of angiotensin II receptor type 1 (AGTR1) antagonist losartan on human nucleus pulposus (NP) cell inflammation and degeneration induced by tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α). Human NP cells (4 donors, Pfirrmann grade 2-3, 30-37 years...
