Cervical spinal instability causes vertebral microarchitecture change and vertebral endplate lesion in rats

Background: The vertebral endplate (VEP) was damaged after spinal instability induced by cervical muscle section (CMS). Whether CMS induces bone formation and mechanical loading change in the vertebra is still obscure. This study was aimed to explore mechanical loading change and endplate damage aft...
