In vivo retention and bioactivity of IL-1ra microspheres in the rat intervertebral disc: a preliminary investigation

BACKGROUND: Inflammatory cytokines such as interleukin-1 beta (IL-1β) contribute to the progression of intervertebral disc degeneration. Previously we demonstrated, in vitro, that by delivering interleukin-1 receptor antagonist (IL-1ra) from poly(lactic co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) microspheres, we coul...
