Abstract

Life Sciences & Biomedicine Medicine, Research & Experimental Research & Experimental Medicine Science & Technology
Morphological studies showed that the model of compression static asymmetric degenerative diseases of intervertebral disks in rats developed by us corresponds to degenerative diseases of the spine in humans. Three-month compression led to a significant reduction of the total disk height by 15.3% and a reduction in the content of notochondrial cells by 64.8%.
