Behavior of mesenchymal stem cells in the chemical microenvironment of the intervertebral disc.
STUDY DESIGN: Responses of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) from 2 age groups was analyzed under chemical conditions representative of the intervertebral disc (IVD) (low glucose levels, acidic pH, high osmolarity, and combined conditions). OBJECTIVE.: To determine the microenvironmental conditions of t...
