Osteoarthritis Cartilage . 2010 Oct; 19(1):89-95. PMID: 20950699
Background: The intervertebral disc (IVD) is dependent on nutrient provision through a cartilage layer with underlying subchondral bone, analogous to joint cartilage. In the joint, subchondral bone remodeling has been...

Osteoarthritis Cartilage . 2010 Aug; 18(11):1487-95. PMID: 20723612
Background: In degenerative intervertebral discs (IVDs) collagen type X expression and calcifications have been demonstrated, resembling advanced osteoarthritis (OA), which is associated with hypertrophic differentiation, characterized by the production of...

J Pathol . 2008 Jan; 214(4):523-30. PMID: 18200629
Intervertebral disc (IVD) degeneration is associated with the increased expression of several matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs), in particular MMP-2. However, little is known about the actual activity of MMP-2 in healthy...

Histopathology . 2007 Nov; 51(6):778-84. PMID: 18042067
Aims: Inhibition of apoptosis is important in the pathogenesis of lymphomas. c-FLIP, a regulator of caspase 8-mediated apoptosis, plays an important role in protecting normal B and T cells from...
