Therapeutic effects of cell therapy with neonatal human dermal fibroblasts and rabbit dermal fibroblasts on disc degeneration and inflammation

The Spine Journal

Howard An, M.D. leads a team of researchers who found that transplanting dermal fibroblasts can significantly increase the markers of disc regeneration and supported the hypothesis that the intervertebral disc is immune privileged. The study also suggests that fibroblast cell therapies can prevent the degeneration and promote the regeneration of the spinal disc.
