TAK-715 ameliorates the progression of intervertebral disc degeneration in a rat puncture model. A MRI images of rat intervertebral discs (n = 6). B Pfirrmann score of caudal MRI images of rats after surgery and injection with TAK-715; C HE and SO/FG staining of rat intervertebral discs (upper scale bar:200 μm, lower scale bar:20 μm). D The histological grades were evaluated (n = 6). The data are presented as the mean ± SD (*P < 0.05; **P < 0.01; ***P < 0.001)
