Abstract
The thesis investigates the pathobiology of Modic changes (MCs), specifically focusing on Modic type 1 changes (MC1), emphasizing the complexity of the disease. Although MCs manifest as vertebral bone marrow lesions, the inflammation and degeneration observed in the neighboring intervertebral disc and cartilage endplate (CEP) are also closely linked to MCs. However, the underlying mechanisms and how the tissues crosstalk to induce MC development are unclear to this point. Yet, comprehending these pathobiological mechanisms is crucial
