چکیده
Silk Fibers has emerged as a versatile biomaterial for regenerative medicine. In article 2203237, Christine Radtke and co-workers use silk-based nerve conduit filled with spider silk fibers to treat rat sciatic defect. The silk-in-silk achieves similar performance the current gold standard, autograft, represents promising approach reconstruction.

Mesenchymal Stem Cells Enhance Nerve Regeneration in a Rat Sciatic Nerve Repair and Hindlimb Transplant Model
This study investigates the efficacy of local and intravenous mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) administration to augment neuroregeneration in both a sciatic nerve cut-and-repair and rat hindlimb transplant model. Bone marrow-derived MSCs were harvested and purified from Brown-Norway (BN) rats. Sciatic nerve transections and repairs were performed in three groups of Lewis (LEW) rats: negative control...
متن کاملDexmedetomidine to Help Nerve Regeneration in a Rat Sciatic Nerve Injury Model
Background Several studies have shown that dexmedetomidine (DXM), a selective α2-adrenoceptor agonist, also has neuroprotective effects. However, its effect on impaired peripheral nerve regeneration has not been studied. Materials and Methods Forty-five Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly assigned to three groups: group 1 (control SHAM), group 2 (sciatic nerve injury + normal saline), and group...
متن کاملAge-Dependent Regeneration by Using Electromyographical Study Foliowing Sciatic Nerve Injury in Rat
Purpose: There are extensive evidences that show axonal processes of the nervous system (peripheral and/or central) may be degenerated after nerve injuries. Axonal regeneration is relation to various factors. In this investigation we decided to evaluate the effects of nerve regeneration age-dependent on injured rat sciatic nerv. Materials and Methods: For this study, the right sciatic nerve of...

Objective(s): To investigate the systemic and local immune status of two surgical rat models of sciatic nerve injury, a crushed sciatic nerve, and a sciatic nerve transection Materials and Methods:Twenty-four adult male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into three groups: sham-operation (control group), sciatic nerve crush, and sciatic nerve transaction. Sciatic nerve surgery was perfor...
متن کاملSciatic Nerve Regeneration in RGD-conjugated-Aligned-Nanofiber Conduits
Introduction: Peripheral segmental nerve injuries are most commonly treated with nerve autografting. However, the availability of autograft tissue is limited, and the morbidity of graft harvesting is significant. As potential alternatives, artificial grafts have been made from natural and synthetic polymers. However, currently available synthetic conduits yield inferior results compared to auto...
