Effect of Long-Term Osmotic Loading Culture on Matrix Synthesis from Intervertebral Disc Cells

The intervertebral disc is a highly hydrated tissue that acts to absorb and distribute large complex loads placed on the spine. Diurnal loading and disc degeneration causes significant changes in water volume and proteoglycan content, which alters the internal osmotic environment. Short-term osmotic...
