Preclinical development of a microRNA-based therapy for intervertebral disc degeneration
Intervertebral disk degeneration (IDD) is characterized by changes in the nucleus pulposus (NP) extra cellular matrix that compromise disk structural integrity. In a miRNA screen of human IDD patient NP tissue, the authors identify deregulated miR-141 and show that direct injection of nanoparticle-c...

| Résumé: | Intervertebral disk degeneration (IDD) is characterized by changes in the nucleus pulposus (NP) extra cellular matrix that compromise disk structural integrity. In a miRNA screen of human IDD patient NP tissue, the authors identify deregulated miR-141 and show that direct injection of nanoparticle-coupled miR-141 into the NP alleviates IDD in mice. |
