I am glad that one article titled as  "The roles and perspectives of microRNAs as biomarkers for intervertebral disc degeneration" has been accepted by Journal of Tissue Engineering and Regenerative Medicine (IF:4.7). As the corresponding author of this manuscript, I am grateful to all the co-authors and their contributions made to this paper. We submitted this manuscript on Aug 17 2015 and made major revisions twice and it was finally accepted on July 3 2016. This paper was supported by the AO grant from Switzerland. Hope that we will have one more manuscript on discs to be published in the near future. God Blessing!
