Electrical stimulation for promoting peripheral nerve regeneration.
The peripheral nervous system has the intrinsic capacity to regenerate axons into target tissues, and peripheral nerves severely damaged or transected can be reconstructed by microsurgical techniques. The aim of peripheral nerve surgery is to pave way for fast and most possible thorough functional recovery. However, full functional recovery is rarely seen and several reasons for this have alrea...
متن کاملNanotechnology for peripheral nerve regeneration
Peripheral nerve injuries (PNI) can lead to lifetime loss of function and disfigurement. Different methods such as conventional allograft procedures and using of biological tubes have problems for damaged peripheral nerves reconstruction. Designed scaffolds with natural and synthetic materials are now widely used in the reconstruction of damaged tissues. Utilization of absorbable and non-absorb...

متن کاملNerve growth factor: increased angiogenesis without improved nerve regeneration.
Nerve growth factor (NGF) and laminin are important factors for neural development and regeneration. We examined the effects of increasing the local concentration and duration of action of NGF and laminin on peripheral nerve regeneration in the adult mouse sciatic nerve. A Silastic (silicone rubber) channel with intraluminal NGF solution was secured between transected nerve ends. The second cha...
متن کاملEffects of Nerve Growth Factor, Insulin- Like Growth Factor-I and Collagen Gel on Peripheral Nerve Channel: Sensory, Functional and Regeneration Through Piezoelectric Electrophysiologicalal Study
Purpose: The limited availability of donor sites for nerve grafts continues to stimulate research toward finding suitable alternatives. Material and Methods: In the following study, the effects of direct administration of Nerve Growth Factor (NGF), Insulin - Like Growth Factor - I (IGF-I) , or / and collagen gel into Polyvinylidene Fluride (PVDF) gap was tested in a rat sciatic nerve model. A ...
