Association of Endothelin-1 Expression and Cartilaginous Endplate Degeneration in Humans

BACKGROUND: Inflammatory cytokines are involved in intervertebral disc (IVD) degeneration. Endothelin-1 (ET-1), a 21-amino-acid cytokine implicated with cartilage degradation, is secreted by vascular endothelial cells and also by many other cell types. The expression of ET-1 in human IVD cartilage e...
