## Abstract Cell proliferation and matrix synthesis were compared for rat nucleus pulposus cells cocultured with mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) or fresh whole bone marrow cells (BMCs), harvested by the perfusion or aspiration methods. Nucleus pulposus cells were isolated from tail intervertebral dis

Cathepsin D, a lysosomal aspartic proteinase, is secreted in the form of enzymatically inactive proenzyme by many types of human breast cancer tissue and exerts mitogenic activity toward these tissues. Flow cytometry was used to test the binding of procathepsin D purified from the secretion of the b
## Abstract Intervertebral disc and especially nucleus pulposus is characterized by low cellularity. Additionally, extreme variations in osmolality are observed in this tissue, as a result of its specific physicochemical environment, daily activities, or degeneration. In this study, we investigated
