Abstract:
Lumbar intervertebral disc degeneration is a common pathological process in the spine,with the main clinical symptoms of low back pain,numbness of lower limbs,and defecation dysfunction.The occur-rence and development of lumbar intervertebral disc degeneration are determined by multiple factors,and the pathophysiological and cellular mechanisms remain to be fully understood.Nucleus pulposus tissue engineering is a new biotherapy that combines biological histology with material science to treat diseases including lumbar inter-vertebral disc degeneration.Clinicians should fully learn the complex relationship between nucleus pulposus tissue engineering and lumbar intervertebral disc degeneration,which will facilitate the clinical treatment of lumbar in-tervertebral disc degeneration,the rehabilitation of lumbar intervertebral disc after treatment,and the prevention of this disease in the population.
