To examine the mechanisms responsible for the more rapid nerve regeneration observed after a previous (conditioning) nerve injury, adult rats were subjected to a midthigh sciatic nerve transection by using one of three protocols designed to facilitate or restrict nerve regeneration: 1) ligation, in
Regeneration of the rat sciatic nerve was studied after a crush lesion (test lesion) on nerves previously subjected to a conditioning lesion. The test lesion was made approximately 30 mm proximal to the conditioning lesion. The period between the conditioning lesion and the test lesion was varied. R
