Research Abstract |
The production of pro-inflammatory cytokines was found to be far larger at the co-culture group of macrophages and intervertebral nucleus pulposus cells with over-expression of Fas Ligand(FasL) which is transmembrane protein. Furthermore, it is found that the expression of ADAM(A Disintegrin And Metalloproteinase) 10, which controls the expression of FasL, also increases. FasL and ADAM10 play an important role in the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines coming from interaction of the intervertebral nucleus pulposus cells and macrophages.
