متن کاملAn immunohistochemical study of mechanoreceptors in lumbar spine intervertebral discs.
There are limited data concerning mechanoreceptors in normal human lumbar intervertebral discs. The aim of our study was to determine the types of mechanoreceptors in the two lower intervertebral discs in normal adult cadaveric donors and to review the literature. Twenty-five lumbar (L4-5 and L5-S1) intervertebral discs were retrieved from 15 fresh cadavers. We utilized immunoreactivity against...
