Strategies for the biological repair of intervertebral discs derive from the premise that disc degeneration results from impaired cellular activity and, therefore, that these structures can be induced to regenerate by implanting active cells or providing factors that restore normal cellular activity.
Can intervertebral disc grow back?
Using Stem Cell Therapy to Regenerate Spinal Discs Naturally
The last few decades, however, has ushered in a plethora of research validating the body's ability to repair itself, especially when bolstered by orthobiologic regenerative therapy.
How do you restore intervertebral discs?
Multiple regenerative strategies for intervertebral disc regeneration are being employed to reduce pain and improve quality of life. Current promising strategies include molecular therapy, gene therapy, cell-based therapy, and augmentation with biomaterials.
