Successful fishing for nucleus pulposus progenitor cells of the intervertebral disc across species

Successful fishing for nucleus pulposus progenitor cells of the intervertebral disc across species

Background Recently, Tie2/TEK receptor tyrosine kinase (Tie2 or syn. angiopoietin‐1 receptor) positive nucleus pulposus progenitor cells were detected in human, cattle, and mouse. These cells show remarkable multilineage differentiation capacity and direct correlation with intervertebral disc (IVD)...
