Open Access Abstract Introduction Loss of intervertebral disc IVD matrix and ultimately disc height as a result of degeneration has been implicated as a major cause of low back pain LBP . The use of anabolic growth factors as therapies to regenerate IVD matrix hence restoring disc height and thus reversing degenerative disc disease has been suggested. Cartilage-derived morphogenetic protein CDMP is a growth factor which stimulates proteoglycan production in chondrocyte-like cells and thus could be a useful growth factor for LBP therapies. However little is known about the expression of CDMP or its receptor in human IVD nor its effects on human disc cells. Methods Using .
