Effects of Morphine Dependency on Intervertebral Disc in the Rat
Background: A large proportion of patients presenting with lumbar disc disease are opium addicts in our region. It was, therefore, hypothesized that morphine might affect the intervertebral disc. We investigated the histological findings of morphine dependency on intervertebral discs in rat. Methods: Forty NMRI adult male rats (230-250 g) placed on ordinary diet and received aqueous solution of...
متن کاملBovine explant model of degeneration of the intervertebral disc
BACKGROUND Many new treatments for degeneration of the intervertebral disc are being developed which can be delivered through a needle. These require testing in model systems before being used in human patients. Unfortunately, because of differences in anatomy, there are no ideal animal models of disc degeneration. Bovine explant model systems have many advantages but it is not possible to inje...
متن کاملLactoferricin Enhances BMP7-Mediated Anabolism in Bovine Intervertebral Disc Cells
Kim, JS; +Im, H-J +Department of Biochemistry, Orthopedic Surgery, Internal Medicine Rush University Medical Center, Chicago, IL60612 +Hee-Jeong [email protected] INTRODUCTION To date, research has shown that progressive breakdown of the extracellular matrix (ECM) is closely associated with disc degeneration. Therefore, biological treatments capable of promoting ECM repair and regeneration have b...
متن کاملMR Spectroscopy in Intervertebral Disc and Correlation with Biochemical Analysis
Introduction Intervertebral disc degeneration (IVDD) is a leading cause of lumbar spine-related lower back pain, a problem that affects 60 to 80% of aging Americans. It is thought the degenerative process starts with proteoglycan (PG) breakdown in the extracellular matrix (ECM) of the nucleus pulposus, followed by tissue dehydration and the reduction of its mechanical properties. Clinically, di...
