| Research Abstract |
Although the etiology of intervertebral disc degeneration is poorly understood, one possible approach for the treatment includes regulation of cell cycle in nucleus pulposus cells. We investigated the cell cycle effects of nucleus pulposus cells in intervertebral disc degeneration. Our findings indicate that regulation of cell cycle in intervertebral disc cells is effective in preventing intervertebral disc degeneration.
