Ferguson, Benjamin Gantenbein-RitterA group of anabolic genes and remodeling genes were analyzed in the NP and AF tissues. Both anabolic genes and remodeling genes were activated in the AF of both CT and CCT when torsion was applied. Plot of log means ± SEM, normalized to no loading control. * p<0.05. NL: no loading, CC: cyclic compression, CT: cyclic torsion, CCT: combined compression torsion, NP: nucleus pulposus, AF: annulus fibrosus. N = 6.G.
