Ex Vivo and In Vitro Proteomic Approach to Elucidate the Relevance of IL-4 and IL-10 in Intervertebral Disc Pathophysiology

Bermudez-Lekerika P, Tseranidou S, Kanelis E, Nuesch A, Crump K, Alexopoulos L, et al.

JOR Spine . 2025 Feb; 8(1):e70048. PMID: 39931581

Background: This study investigates the native presence and potential anabolic effects of interleukin (IL)-4 and IL-10 in the human intervertebral disc (IVD). Methods: Human nucleus pulposus (NP) cells cultured in...

Annulus Fibrosus Repair via Interpenetration of a Non-Woven Scaffold Supports Tissue Integration and Prevents Re-Herniation

Ongini E, Abdullah M, Engiles J, Orozco B, Moehl A, Peredo A, et al.

JOR Spine . 2025 Feb; 8(1):e70045. PMID: 39925750

Background: Current surgical management of intervertebral disc herniation often fails to adequately address the risk of recurrence, primarily due to the disc's limited regenerative capacity. Regenerative, biomaterial-based approaches for tissue...

The Cross-Sectional Areas and Anterior-Posterior Balance of the Cervical Paraspinal Muscles in Dropped Head Syndrome and Cervical Spondylotic Myelopathy: A Propensity Score-Matched Analysis

Sono T, Ijiri K, Kakehi K, Masuda S, Shimizu T, Murata K, et al.

JOR Spine . 2025 Feb; 8(1):e70047. PMID: 39896130

Introduction: Dropped head syndrome (DHS) is characterized by weakness of the neck extensor muscles. However, few studies have assessed the cross-sectional areas (CSAs) of the cervical paraspinal muscles (CPM) and...

Variations in ECM Topography, Fiber Alignment, Mechanical Stiffness, and Cellular Composition Between Ventral and Dorsal Ligamentum Flavum Layers: Insights Into Hypertrophy Pathogenesis

Tu T, Hsu Y, Yang C, Shyong Y, Kuo C, Liu Y, et al.

JOR Spine . 2025 Jan; 8(1):e70033. PMID: 39886656

Background: Previous studies have suggested that changes in the composition of the extracellular matrix (ECM) play a significant role in the development of ligamentum flavum hypertrophy (LFH) and the histological...

Explorative Study of Modulatory Effects of Notochordal Cell-Derived Extracellular Vesicles on the IL-1β-Induced Catabolic Cascade in Nucleus Pulposus Cell Pellets and Explants

van Maanen J, Bach F, Snuggs J, Ito K, Wauben M, Le Maitre C, et al.

JOR Spine . 2025 Jan; 8(1):e70043. PMID: 39881783

Background: Cell-free regenerative strategies, such as notochordal cell (NC)-derived extracellular vesicles (EVs), are an attractive alternative in developing new therapies for intervertebral disc (IVD) degeneration. NC-EVs have been reported to...

E74-like ETS transcription factor 3 expression and regulation in human intervertebral disc

Gonzalez-Rodriguez M, Ait Eldjoudi D, Cordero-Barreal A, Farrag M, Varela-Garcia M, Ruiz-Fernandez C, et al.

JOR Spine . 2025 Jan; 8(1):e70016. PMID: 39877798

Background: Intervertebral disc degeneration (IVDD) is one of the main causes of chronic low back pain. The degenerative process is often initiated by an imbalance between catabolic and anabolic pathways....

Gut Microbiome and Metabolome Changes in Chronic Low Back Pain Patients With Vertebral Bone Marrow Lesions

Li W, Tu J, Zheng J, Das A, Yan Q, Jiang X, et al.

JOR Spine . 2025 Jan; 8(1):e70042. PMID: 39877797

Background: Chronic low back pain (LBP) is a significant global health concern, often linked to vertebral bone marrow lesions (BML), particularly fatty replacement (FR). This study aims to explore the...

Contemporary clinical perspectives on chronic low back pain: The biology, mechanics, etc. underpinning clinical and radiological evaluation

Sima S, Diwan A

JOR Spine . 2025 Jan; 8(1):e70021. PMID: 39867670

Background: Pain of a chronic nature remains the foremost concern in tertiary spine clinics, yet its elusive nature and quantification challenges persist. Despite extensive research and education on low back...

Is There a Positive or Negative Correlation Between Cervical Vertebral Bone Quality and Intervertebral Disc Degeneration by Pfirrmann Grading

Qiu Z, Chen S, Feng N, Li W, Ma Y, Zhou S, et al.

JOR Spine . 2025 Jan; 8(1):e70038. PMID: 39850653

Objective: Cervical degeneration involves many pathophysiological changes. Vertebral bone loss, sclerotic hyperplasia of the vertebral body and intervertebral disc degeneration (IDD) are most common degenerative factors. However, whether there is...

Intervertebral Disc Degeneration Mediates the Causal Effect of Genetically Predicted Diffuse Idiopathic Skeletal Hyperostosis on Spinal Stenosis: Evidence From a Mendelian Randomization Study

Shen Y, Jiang Y, Jiang R, Huang Y, Zhan S, Wang Y, et al.

JOR Spine . 2025 Jan; 8(1):e70041. PMID: 39838974

Background: Previous studies have noted an association between diffuse idiopathic skeletal hyperostosis (DISH) and spinal stenosis (SS), although causation is unclear. This study used Mendelian randomization (MR) to investigate the...
