Core Tip |
In this review, we presented a precise overview of the anatomical and molecular structure and surrounding pathophysiology of the intervertebral disc (IVD). Modern therapeutic approaches including proteins and growth factors, cellular and gene therapy, and cell fate regulators are highlighted. In addition, different types of stem cells used for the implantation in IVD are reviewed. Furthermore, small molecules that modulate the fate of stem cells for their differentiation into chondrocytes and notochordal cell types are presented. In conclusion, this review highlights regenerative medicine-based approaches for the regeneration of intervertebral disc degeneration. |
