## Abstract The intervertebral disc is the largest asvacular structure in the body; consequently, there are steep gradients in O~2~ concentration, with PO~2~ falling to as low as 1% O~2~ in the centre of the disc. We investigated the effect of O~2~ concentration on the rates of O~2~ consumption, la

The effect of static loading on matrix synthesis was measured in intact bovine coccygeal discs. The discs were maintained at 37°C in a humid atmosphere and were perfused across their upper and lower surfaces for as long as 8 hours with media containing radioisotopes (3H-proline and 35S-sulphate) via
