Human Annulus Fibrosus Cells

Research on the Human Annulus Fibrosus Cells is essential to the study of cellular and molecular events involved in disc degeneration, tissue engineering and cell therapy for spinal disc disorders. The intervertebral disc is a fibrocartilaginous structure located between the vertebrae. It consists of an outer fibrous ring (annulus fibrosus) and a gel-like core (nucleus pulposus). It acts as a shock absorber to maintain the flexibility and stability of the spine. Degeneration or external trauma can lead to disc herniation, causing symptoms such as pain or numbness. The Human Annulus Fibrosus Cells are to be used with Human Annulus Fibrosus Cell Medium (Cat. No. ACM0159). This product is intended for laboratory in vitro use only. It is not intended for diagnostic, therapeutic, or clinical applications.
