Cells from different regions of the intervertebral disc: effect of culture system on matrix expression and cell phenotype.

STUDY DESIGN: This study examined how the culture system and region of cellular origin affect disc cell morphology and extracellular matrix production. OBJECTIVE: To determine the role of the cell populations in the different regions of the adult intervertebral disc in maintaining gradients in comp...
