Biomimetic Hydrogels with Nucleus Pulposus-like Viscoelasticity and ECM Peptides for Discogenic Differentiation of Stem Cells

Abstract Intervertebral disc (IVD) degeneration is a leading cause of low back pain (LBP), primarily originating in the nucleus pulposus (NP). Regenerative strategies combining mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) with biomaterials offer great potential for NP repair by replenishing cel...
