Important advances in microsurgery have provided surgeons with the technical skills
required to repair peripheral nerve injuries. The clinical treatment of a severed peripheral …

Tissue engineering in the peripheral nervous system unites efforts by physicians, engineers,
and biologists toward a common goal to create either natural or synthetic tubular nerve …

This study evaluates the ability of Schwann cells (SCs) transplanted into a nerve guide to
improve regeneration and reinnervation after sciatic nerve resection and repair, leaving a 6 …

SCIATIC nerve resection leaving a 15 mm gap could not be repaired by bridging the stumps
with a silicone tube prefilled with a laminin gel. However, when purified olfactory …

We assessed the effects of FK506 administration on regeneration after a 6‐mm gap repair
with a collagen guide seeded with allogeneic Schwann cells (SCs) in the mouse sciatic …

Central and peripheral neural injuries are traumatic and can lead to loss of motor and
sensory function, chronic pain, and permanent disability. Strategies that bridge the site of …

We have developed a method for nerve tissue regeneration using longitudinally oriented
channels within biodegradable polymers created by a combined lyophilizing and wire …

Seeding of artificial nerve grafts with Schwann cells is a promising strategy for bridging large
nerve defects. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the adhesion and growth of …

We previously developed a biodegradable composite with potentially good biocompatibility
composed by tricalcium phosphate and gluataraldehyde cross-linking gelatin (GTG) with …
