Pulsed Electromagnetic Field Stimulates Cellular Proliferation in Human Intervertebral Disc Cells
PURPOSE The purpose of this study is to investigate the mechanism of cellular proliferation of electromagnetic field (EMF) on human intervertebral disc (IVD) cells. MATERIALS AND METHODS Human IVD cells were cultured three-dimensionally in alginate beads. EMF was exposed to IVD cells with 650 Ω, 1.8 millitesla magnetic flux density, 60 Hz sinusoidal wave. Cultures were divided into a control ...
متن کاملThe characteristics of stem cells in human degenerative intervertebral disc
BACKGROUND The aim of this study is to identify which possessed the best stem-cell-like characteristics in 3 kinds of cell in human degenerative intervertebral disc: NPSCs (nucleus pulposus-derived stem cells), AFSCs (annulus fibrosus-derived stem cells), or CESCs (cartilage endplate-derived stem cells). METHODS We separated the disc samples obtained from 15 surgically treated patients with d...
متن کاملEffect of pulsed electromagnetic field on the proliferation and differentiation potential of human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells.
Pulsed electromagnetic fields (PEMFs) have been used clinically to slow down osteoporosis and accelerate the healing of bone fractures for many years. The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of PEMFs on the proliferation and differentiation potential of human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMMSC). PEMF stimulus was administered to BMMSCs for 8 h per day during culture period. Th...
متن کاملOxygen Consumption Rate of Human Intervertebral Disc Cells
INTRODUCTION The intervertebral disc (IVD) is the largest avascular structure in the human body, and is comprised of three major components: the annulus fibrosus (AF), nucleus pulposus (NP), and cartilaginous end-plate (CEP). Compromised disc nutrition is believed to be the key factor in the development of disc degeneration which has hampered previous tissue engineering or repair efforts. The b...
متن کاملPulsed electromagnetic field therapy in plastic surgery.
Electrotherapy devices, used for decades to reduce pain and swelling following surgery, have undergone significant refinements and have been used successfully in rhytidectomy, liposculpture, laser resurfacing, brow lift, facial fat grafting, rhinoplasty, abdominoplasty, and breast surgery. The devices are currently available as wearable patches.
