Although anterior and posterior decompression surgery are both reported to treat patients with myelopathy caused by ossification of the longitudinal ligament (OPLL). The surgical strategy disease is still controversial when OPLL multilevel severe. This present study reports preliminary clinical results a novel technique named controllable antidisplacement fusion (ACAF) for treatment multilevel-severe myelopathy. A series 15 cervical compression severe were enrolled. All underwent ACAF after...

Neovasculogenesis is characteristic of herniated lumbar discs, in which extruded nucleus pulposus prone to heme iron-induced cytotoxicity (increased oxidative stress causing ferroptosis). However, recent analyses neovascularization are very complicated, and the mechanism action rarely reported.Matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization-time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS) was performed analyze human nonherniated pulposus. Then, clinical relevance MALDI-TOF MS results Pfirrmann...

Due to the obstruction and heterogeneity of blood-brain barrier, clinical treatment glioma has been extremely difficult. Isoliquiritigenin (ISL) exhibits antitumor effects, but its low solubility bioavailability limit application potential. Herein, we established a nanoscale hybrid membrane-derived system composed erythrocytes tumor cells. By encapsulating ISL in membrane nanoparticles, is expected be enhanced for targeting long-circulation gliomas therapy. We fused with human cells U251...

The abnormal activation of the inflammatory microenvironment is frequently accompanied by metabolic changes that affect development various diseases. However, relationship between reprogramming and intervertebral disc degeneration (IVDD) remains unclear. This study aims to reveal in nucleus pulposus (NPCs) during IVDD investigate mechanism glycolysis-derived lactate on NPCs. Single-cell RNA sequencing reveals IVDD, NPCs are characterized excessively elevated glycolysis, resultant causes...

Low back pain (LBP) has been a wide public health concern worldwide. Among the pathogenic factors, intervertebral disc degeneration (IDD) one of primary contributors to LBP. IDD correlates closely with inflammatory response and oxidative stress, involving variety inflammation‐related cytokines, such as interleukin 1 beta (IL‐1 β ), which could result in local environment. Ulinastatin (UTI) is kind acidic protein extracted from human urine, inhibits release tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF‐ α...

Abstract Low-intensity pulsed ultrasound (LIPUS) has been found to accelerate spinal fusion. Type H microvessels are in close relation with bone development. We analyzed the role of type vessels rat fusion model intervened by LIPUS. It was LIPUS could significantly rate and enlarge callus. Osteoblasts were specifically located on meshwork allograft surrounded microvessels. increase quantity osteoblasts during spine fusion, which process coupled elevated angiogenesis Our results suggest that...

Lumbar intervertebral disc degeneration (IDD) has been the major contributor to low back pain (LBP). IDD is an chronic inflammation process, with activation of plentiful inflammation‐related cytokines and ECM degradation‐related enzymes. In past few years, hypertension reported correlate LBP. addition, local tissue renin‐angiotensin system (tRAS) identified in multiple tissues, including spinal cord, skin, kidney, heart, bone. Recently, tRAS also established both bovine human especially...

This study investigates the use of a natural polysaccharide isolated from mulberry leaves as nonviral gene vector. Ethylenediamine is chemically grafted to backbone (MPS) acquire nucleic acid binding affinity. A particle-size observation indicates that cationic leaf (CMPS) can efficiently combine with plasmid transforming growth factor β1 (TGF-β1) form nanoscaled particles. In addition, electrophoresis assay retarded migration when CMPS/pTGF-β1 weight ratio increased 30:1. The in vitro cell...

Selective fusion of the thoracolumbar/lumbar (TL/L) curve is an effective method for treatment Lenke type 5C curves. Several studies have demonstrated that spontaneous correction thoracic does indeed occur. However, how this occurs after isolated posterior segmental instrumentation structural lumbar has not been well described. The aim study was to evaluate response selective TL/L in patients with adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) and assess correlative clinical outcomes. Thirty-four...

Intervertebral disc degeneration (IDD) is characterized by excessive inflammatory reaction, and neuropeptide Y (NPY) was reported to have anti-inflammatory effect. However, the effect of NPY on NP cells has not been investigated up date. This study aimed clarify role process IDD. Fourteen fresh human lumbar intervertebral discs were harvested, degeneration-related proteins examined.
