Journal ArticleDOI
Genipin cross-linked type II collagen/chondroitin sulfate composite hydrogel-like cell delivery system induces differentiation of adipose-derived stem cells and regenerates degenerated nucleus pulposus.
Xiaopeng Zhou,Jingkai Wang,Weijing Fang,Yiqing Tao,Tengfei Zhao,Kaishun Xia,Chengzhen Liang,Jianming Hua,Fangcai Li,Qixin Chen +9 more
TL;DR: The results showed that the CCSA delivery system cross-linked with 0.02% genipin was biocompatible and promoted the expressions of NP-specific genes and provided an exciting new avenue for the treatment of degenerative disc disease.
Journal ArticleDOI
Responses of human adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells to chemical microenvironment of the intervertebral disc
TL;DR: Findings may promote the translational research of ADMSCs in IVD regeneration for the treatment of low back pain and stop IVD-like high osmolarity and low pH are deleterious factors that affect the survival and biological behaviors of AD MSCs.
Journal ArticleDOI
Nucleus pulposus mesenchymal stem cells in acidic conditions mimicking degenerative intervertebral discs give better performance than adipose tissue-derived mesenchymal stem cells.
TL;DR: Compared with ADMSCs, NPMSCs appeared less sensitive to inhibition by acidic pH and might be promising candidates for cell-based IVD regeneration.
Journal ArticleDOI
Influence of Hypoxia in the Intervertebral Disc on the Biological Behaviors of Rat Adipose- and Nucleus Pulposus-Derived Mesenchymal Stem Cells
TL;DR: In conclusion, hypoxia in the IVD had a significant impact on the viability, proliferation and chondrocytic differentiation of ADMSCs and NPMSCs, and may represent another candidate for cell-based therapy for IVD regeneration.
Journal ArticleDOI
Dual release of dexamethasone and TGF-β3 from polymeric microspheres for stem cell matrix accumulation in a rat disc degeneration model.
Chengzhen Liang,Hao Li,Yiqing Tao,Li-hua Peng,Jian-Qing Gao,Jing-jun Wu,Fangcai Li,Jianming Hua,Qixin Chen +8 more
TL;DR: Data suggest that ADSC-seeded PLGA microspheres could partly regenerate the degenerated disc in vivo after implantation into the rat degenerative intervertebral disc.
