The chondrodystrophic dog: A clinically relevant intermediate‐sized animal model for the study of intervertebral disc‐associated spinal pain

Abstract: Low back pain (LBP) is the leading cause of disability worldwide, with an estimated 80% of the American population suffering from a painful back condition at some point during their lives. The most common cause of LBP is intervertebral disc (IVD) degeneration (IVDD), a condition that can be difficult to treat, either surgically or medically, with current available therapies. Thus, understanding the pathological mechanisms of IVDD and developing novel treatments are critical for improving outcome and quality of… Show more

“…The lesions can be induced either ventrally or dorsolaterally to the disc and the more extensive lesions require a large surgical approach, making the procedure relatively invasive, especially in small animal models. Multiple lesions ranging from simple annular puncture with a needle (Hsieh et al, 2009;Issy et al, 2013;Kim et al, 2005;Martin et al, 2013;Masuda et al, 2004;Michalek et al, 2010;Sobajima et al, 2005;Tian et al, 2018) to extensive incision of the AF with a scalpel or drill bit (Kääpä et al, 1994;Lipson and Muir, 1980;Lipson and Muir, 1981;Melrose et al, 2002;Olsewski et al, 1996;Osti et al, 1990;Rousseau et al, 2007;Schollum et al, 2010;Zhang et al, 2011) have been described. The annular puncture can easily be guided percutaneously by fluoroscopy or CT for rabbits (Chai et al, 2016;Kim et al, 2005) or larger animals and is less invasive (Zhou et al, 2013b).…”

“…These scales are well described in DDD rodent models (Lai et al, 2015;Mosley et al, 2017). In dogs, numerous techniques have been developed such as quality of life questionnaires, quantitative sensory testing, locomotor scoring systems and kinematic gait assessments (reviewed by Thompson et al, 2018, specifically for the clinical representation of CD dogs). Furthermore, pain scales are available and have been employed in canine patients suffering DDD, including the modified Canine Brief Pain Inventory (Brown et al, 2009), which was further modified and adapted for the chronic back pain canine patients (Suwankong et al, 2007).…”

“…Lower back pain is the main cause of disability in humans and therefore has a tremendous socioeconomic impact. Similarly, in dogs, IVDD is a prevalent disorder and shares many similarities in the clinical presentation, but also potentially in its aetiopathogenesis (3,4). While the molecular disease mechanisms in humans, specifically the mechanisms of inflammation during disc aging and degeneration (= inflammaging) are well-investigated (5)(6)(7)(8), considerably less is known about the pathobiology of canine IVDD.…”

“…IVDD is related to age, load-bearing labor, trauma and heredity and leads to chronic low back pain and economic burden [2]. Although there are many factors that can lead to LBP, IVDD is considered as a major factor [3,4]. Treatment of IVDD remains a clinical challenge due to conservative treatment, in which only symptoms can be alleviated, while surgical treatment leads to complications and structural damage [5].…”
