Expression and Mechanism of Interleukin 1 (IL-1), Interleukin 2 (IL-2), Interleukin 8 (IL-8), BMP, Fibroblast Growth Factor 1 (FGF1), and Insulin-Like Growth Factor (IGF-1) in Lumbar Disc Herniation.

CONCLUSIONS After lumbar disc herniation occurred, the IGF-1 was first activated; the PI3K/AKT signaling pathway was later activated, which resulted in the expression of IL-1 and IL-2 inflammation-related factors being increased. PMID: 30716059 [PubMed - in process]
