Abstract

In degenerative diseases, microenvironment deterioration is often followed by a vicious circle of cell death and aggravation of microenvironment deterioration. To break the cycle, a gene-hydrogel microenvironment is constructed in article number 1902099 by Yuhui Zhang, Hélder A. Santos, Hongxing Shen, and co-workers in situ, which regulates the synthesis/catabolism balance of extracellular matrix in the nucleus pulposus of the intervertebral disc and improves the tissue microenvironment regeneration.
