TNFα transport induced by dynamic loading alters biomechanics of intact intervertebral discs.
<h4>Objective</h4>Intervertebral disc (IVD) degeneration is an important contributor to the development of back pain, and a key factor relating pain and degeneration are the presence of pro-inflammatory cytokines and IVD motion. There is surprisingly limited understanding of how mechanic...
