Rat sciatic nerve regeneration through type I collagen-derivedartificial tubular implants

Objective: To investigate the efficacy of a type I collagen-derived artificial tubular implant on sciatic nerve regeneration. Materials and Methods: Sprague-Dawley rat sciatic nerve injury model was built by cutting a 5.0 mm defect on the sciatic nerve of the right thigh. Rats with sciatic nerve injury were treated with type I collagen-derived artificial tubular implants (Group A), autologous c...

Nontubulation Repair of Peripheral Nerve Gap Using Heparin/Alginate Gel Combined with b-FGF.

All artificial nerve grafts have a tubular structure, and they guide axonal regrowth through the tube from the proximal side toward the peripheral side. Based on the results of our experimental study using animals, we used alginate gel without a tubular structure as an artificial nerve graft for digital nerve repair and evaluated peripheral nerve regeneration. In 2 patients, a gap due to digita...

Hyaluronic acid and nerve regeneration

The tubulization repair technique is a useful model for studying peripheral nerve regeneration since it provides quantifiable parameters for assessing the effects of exogenously applied substances on nerve repair. In this study, we observed that the local administration of hyaluronic acid (HA) in a tubular prosthesis at the time of implantation significantly improved the repair process, and tha...

A new artificial nerve graft containing rolled Schwann cell monolayers.

This study hypothesized that introducing high numbers of Schwann cells in monolayers via a novel rolled graft architecture would promote robust nerve regeneration. The objective was to place adherent Schwann cells in artificial nerve grafts and to assess regeneration through the Schwann cell-laden grafts compared with that through acellular grafts and autografts. Schwann cells were isolated fro...

Functional regeneration of glossopharyngeal nerve through micromachined sieve electrode arrays.

To assess the potential of micromachined silicon sieve electrodes for long term recordings from single afferent sensory fibers, we implanted them between the cut ends of rat glossopharyngeal nerves which innervate taste and somatosensory receptors on the posterior tongue. After the implants had been in place for an average of 101 days nerve regeneration was measured using histological and elect...
