| Popis: |
Homeobox protein Mohwak (Mkx) is involved in tendon and ligament development. Here the authors show that Mkx in the outer annulus fibrosus of the intervertebral disc plays a role in maintenance of the IVD, showing that stem cells overexpressing Mkx enhance therapeutic IVD regeneration in mice. |
