The influence of serum, glucose and oxygen on intervertebral disc cell growth in vitro: implications for degenerative disc disease
INTRODUCTION: The avascular nature of the human intervertebral disc (IVD) is thought to play a major role in disc pathophysiology by limiting nutrient supply to resident IVD cells. In the human IVD, the central IVD cells at maturity are normally chondrocytic in phenotype. However, abnormal cell phen...
