这种微创侧向通道方法是有效和安全的，没有手术后疝气，腹部伤口开裂或感染在本系列中观察到。使用具有深度停止的钻头椎间盘损伤模型提供了一种可重现的方法，引起已知尺寸（ 即本研究中的3.5mm直径×12mm深度损伤）的一致的椎间盘损伤。根据我们的经验，该方法比传统描述的羊手术刀片腰椎间盘切开术模型6,22（未发表的数据）中观察到的椎间盘退变程度低得多。这将在即将出版的...

下背痛是全世界残疾的主要原因1 。腰椎间盘退变相关性椎间盘突出症被认为是下腰痛的重要原因之一2 。对可靠的椎间盘疾病动物模型的需求不断增加，以扩大对退行性过程的理解和潜在疗法的调查。 存在许多椎间盘退变的动物模型3 。用于调查退行性椎间盘疾病的动物模型的大小范围从小鼠4到较大的哺乳动物如狗5 ，绵羊6和非人灵长类动物7 。用于诱导椎间盘退变的方法可以大致分为机械类（ 例如椎间盘缩小术）<html> n 8或手术损伤6 ），化学（ 例如化学性核解解5 ）或较不常见的自发性变性（ 例如沙鼠9 ）。 鉴于人椎间盘退变的复杂性，不存在完美的动物模型。然而，在选择合适的动物模型以模拟这种情况的重要考虑已经被确定3 。这样的考虑包括:没有脊索细胞（原始细胞具有可能的祖细胞功能10，不存在于人，绵羊，山羊和软骨营养不良犬中的成年髓核，但存在于大多数哺乳动物中），动物相对于人和椎间盘尺寸相似，可比的生物力学临床条件，机制和伦理考虑3 。 <html>非人类灵长类动物符合上述许多标准，自发性椎间盘退变的狒狒和猕猴模型已被描述为11,12,13 ，两种物种在直立或半直立的姿势中花费大量的时间 - 一个明显的优势然而，道德和实际的考虑（ 例如费用，住房，自发性退化的延迟发作）限制在许多机构中的使用。 羊脊柱是椎间盘退变的确定模型，其优点包括细胞，生物力学和解剖学相似于人类脊柱10,14,15。尽管绵羊的四足身材，羊腰椎间盘暴露于人类椎间盘的相似应力s ="xref"&gt; 14。羊胎模型从伦理角度也比非人类灵长类动物模型更受广泛接受。已经描述了各种方法来启动退行性过程，其中许多方法需要直接进入椎间盘。由于脊髓在骶骨区域的终止以及后腰纵韧带在卵巢腰椎骨化，椎间盘后路接近技术上具有挑战性，较不常见于羊16 。通过前路或前外侧入路的羊腰椎的传统通路需要大的腹部切口，充满疝风险，损害内脏和神经血管结构16 。使用相对较小的外侧切口远离依赖性腹部区域可能会降低这种风险17 。 我们提出一个羊退行性腰椎间盘疾病使用微创外侧方法进行的钻头损伤，并受到张等的工作的启发。 al 18 。该协议的目的是使可靠的腰椎间盘损伤模型易于重复，产生一致的伤害，并且是安全和良好耐受的。这种方法非常适合于寻求诱导较轻度的腰椎间盘退变的研究者，而不是用传统手术瓣膜切开术（未发表的数据）观察椎间盘退变或再生疗法。这些发现将在即将出版的出版物中进行描述。

Renal Ischaemia Reperfusion Injury: A Mouse Model of Injury and Regeneration

Renal ischaemia reperfusion injury (IRI) is a common cause of acute kidney injury (AKI) in patients and occlusion of renal blood flow is unavoidable during renal transplantation. Experimental models that accurately and reproducibly recapitulate renal IRI are crucial in dissecting the pathophysiology of AKI and the development of novel therapeutic agents. Presented here is a mouse model of renal IRI that results in reproducible AKI. This is achieved by a midline laparotomy approach for the surgery with one incision allowing both a right nephrectomy that provides control tissue and clamping of the left renal pedicle to induce ischaemia of the left kidney. By careful monitoring of the clamp position and body temperature during the period of ischaemia this model achieves reproducible functional and structural injury. Mice sacrificed 24 hr&#160;following surgery demonstrate loss of renal function with elevation of the serum or plasma creatinine level as well as structural kidney damage with acute tubular necrosis evident. Renal function improves and the acute tissue injury resolves during the course of 7 days following renal IRI such that this model may be used to study renal regeneration. This model of renal IRI has been utilized to study the molecular and cellular pathophysiology of AKI as well as analysis of the subsequent renal regeneration.

The mouse model of renal ischaemia reperfusion injury described here comprises of a right nephrectomy that provides control tissue and clamping of the left renal pedicle to induce ischaemia that results in acute kidney injury. This model uses a midline laparotomy approach with all steps performed via one incision.

An In Vitro Organ Culture Model of the Murine Intervertebral Disc

Intervertebral disc (IVD) degeneration is a significant contributor to low back pain. The IVD is a fibrocartilaginous joint that serves to transmit and dampen loads in the spine. The IVD consists of a proteoglycan-rich nucleus pulposus (NP) and a collagen-rich annulus fibrosis (AF) sandwiched by cartilaginous end-plates. Together with the adjacent vertebrae, the vertebrae-IVD structure forms a functional spine unit (FSU). These microstructures contain unique cell types as well as unique extracellular matrices. Whole organ culture of the FSU preserves the native extracellular matrix, cell differentiation phenotypes, and cellular-matrix interactions. Thus, organ culture techniques are particularly useful for investigating the complex biological mechanisms of the IVD. Here, we describe a high-throughput approach for culturing whole lumbar mouse FSUs that provides an ideal platform for studying disease mechanisms and therapies for the IVD. Furthermore, we describe several applications that utilize this organ culture method to conduct further studies including contrast-enhanced microCT imaging and three-dimensional high-resolution finite element modeling of the IVD.

Utilizing Murine Inducible Telomerase Alleles in the Studies of Tissue Degeneration/Regeneration and Cancer

Telomere dysfunction-induced loss of genome integrity and its associated DNA damage signaling and checkpoint responses are well-established drivers that cause tissue degeneration during ageing. Cancer, with incidence rates greatly increasing with age, is characterized by short telomere lengths and high telomerase activity. To study the roles of telomere dysfunction and telomerase reactivation in ageing and cancer, the protocol shows how to generate two murine inducible telomerase knock-in alleles 4-Hydroxytamoxifen (4-OHT)-inducible TERT-Estrogen Receptor (mTERT-ER) and Lox-Stopper-LoxTERT (LSL-mTERT). The protocol describes the procedures to induce telomere dysfunction and reactivate telomerase activity in mTERT-ER and LSL-mTERT mice in vivo. The representative data show that reactivation of telomerase activity can ameliorate the tissue degenerative phenotypes induced by telomere dysfunction. In order to determine the impact of telomerase reactivation on tumorigenesis, we generated prostate tumor model G4 PB-Cre4 PtenL/L p53L/L LSL-mTERTL/L and thymic T-cell lymphoma model G4 Atm-/- mTERTER/ER. The representative data show that telomerase reactivation in the backdrop of genomic instability induced by telomere dysfunction can greatly enhance tumorigenesis. The protocol also describes the procedures used to isolate neural stem cells (NSCs) from mTERT-ER and LSL-mTERT mice and reactivate telomerase activity in NSCs in vitro. The representative data show that reactivation of telomerase can enhance the self-renewal capability and neurogenesis in vitro. Finally, the protocol describes the procedures for performing telomere FISH (Fluorescence In Situ Hybridization) on both mouse FFPE (Formalin Fixed and Paraffin Embedded) brain tissues and metaphase chromosomes of cultured cells.

Telomere and telomerase play essential roles in ageing and tumorigenesis. The goal of this protocol is to show how to generate two murine inducible telomerase knock-in alleles and how to utilize them in the studies of tissue degeneration/regeneration and cancer.

A Proinflammatory, Degenerative Organ Culture Model to Simulate Early-Stage Intervertebral Disc Disease.

Symptomatic intervertebral disc (IVD) degeneration (IDD) is a major socioeconomic burden and is characterized by inflammation and tissue degradation. Due to the lack of causative therapies, there is an urgent need for innovative experimental organ culture models to study the mechanisms involved in the progression of the disease, find therapeutic targets, and reduce the need for animal models. We here present a novel, three-dimensional organ culture model protocol mimicking the proinflammatory and catabolic microenvironment, which is present during IDD. 
Initially, bovine caudal IVDs were dissected, cleaned, and cultured in the tissue culture medium. Dynamic physiologic or pathologic loading was applied in a custom-made bioreactor for 2 hours per day. IVDs were assigned to a control group (high glucose medium, physiological loading, phosphate-buffered saline injection) and a pathological group (low glucose medium, pathological loading, tumor necrosis factor-alpha injection) for four days. Gene expression analysis from collected nucleus pulposus cells of the IVDs and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay of the conditioned organ culture media was performed. 
Our data revealed a higher expression of inflammatory markers and reduced disc heights after loading in the pathological group compared to the control group. This protocol is reliable to simulate IVD inflammation and degeneration and can be further expanded to broaden its application scope.

This protocol presents a novel experimental model of proinflammatory, degenerative bovine organ culture to simulate early-stage intervertebral disc degeneration.

Operational and Intervention Effects of Targeted Tuina in Lumbar Intervertebral Disc Degeneration Model Rabbits

Tui Na or massage therapy alleviates symptoms related to intervertebral disc degeneration (IDD). However, precise, repeatable, standardized instructions for Tuina manipulation are lacking. This study establishes IDD model rabbits induced by fibrous ring puncture, creates targeted Tuina stimulation protocols at the acupuncture points in the lumbar region, and describes in detail the operation methods and requirements of kneading, pointing, and flicking. New Zealand male white rabbits (n = 15) were selected and randomly divided into a blank group, a model group, and a Tuina group. The rabbits in the model group and the Tuina group were molded by fibrous ring puncture; the rabbits in the model group were only immobilized on the operating table without treatment. In contrast, the Tuina group used the "8N/10N, 30 cycles/min" prescription for kneading, pointing, and flicking to perform the intervention, using tactile sensory aids to monitor and regulate the intensity of the Tuina operation. Imaging diagnosis and pathological tests were used to assess the effect of Tuina in rabbits, and the results showed improved imaging features and significantly lowered pathology scores of lumbar disc degeneration in the Tuina group compared to the model group (P &lt; 0.01). Targeted Tuina in the lumbar region may be beneficial in the alleviation of lumbar disc degeneration, but further verification is needed. By regularly performing Tuina and recording the mechanical information involved enables reproducible manipulation prescriptions and helps to observe the basic features of the underlying mechanism of Tuina for IDD.

Induction of Lumbar Disc Degeneration in Rabbits Through a Transabdominal Approach

Lower back pain is an extremely common medical issue in populations worldwide. One of the main contributors to lower back pain is intervertebral disc (IVD) degeneration. An ideal animal model of IVD degeneration is essential to study the pathophysiology of lower back pain and investigate potential therapeutic strategies. Rabbit models are reliable, economical, and easily established animal models. The retroperitoneal approach has been widely used to induce IVD degeneration in rabbit models. However, there are reported complications associated with this technique, such as the avulsion of segmental arteries and nerve root injury. In this paper, we aim to show a surgical protocol using needle puncture to establish rabbit lumbar disc degeneration via a transabdominal approach. Consequently, radiological checks and histological analyses indicated that lumbar disc degeneration was successfully established in rabbits. This surgical protocol presents the precise location of target discs and high reproducibility of IVD degeneration models with fewer complications.

A Mouse Model of Lumbar Spine Instability

Intervertebral disc degeneration (IDD) is a common pathological change leading to low back pain. Appropriate animal models are desired for understanding the pathological processes and evaluating new drugs. Here, we introduced a surgically induced lumbar spine instability (LSI) mouse model that develops IDD starting from 1 week post operation. In detail, the mouse under anesthesia was operated by low back skin incision, L3&#8211;L5 spinous processes exposure, detachment of paraspinous muscles, resection of processes and ligaments, and skin closure. L4&#8211;L5 IVDs were chosen for the observation. The LSI model develops lumbar IDD by porosity and hypertrophy in endplates at an early stage, decrease in intervertebral disc volume, shrinkage in nucleus pulposus at an intermediate stage, and bone loss in lumbar vertebrae (L5) at a later stage. The LSI mouse model has the advantages of strong operability, no requirement of special equipment, reproducibility, inexpensive, and relatively short period of IDD development. However, LSI operation is still a trauma that causes inflammation within the first week post operation. Thus, this animal model is suitable for study of lumbar IDD.

We developed a lumbar intervertebral disc degeneration mouse model by resection of L3&#8211;L5 spinous processes along with supra- and inter-spinous ligaments and detachment of paraspinous muscles.
