## Abstract Young __Ambystoma__ larvae were subjected to forelimb amputation followed by a series of injections of either nerve growth factor (NGF) or saline solution. The animals receiving the NGF injections showed an increase in the length of the regenerate and an acceleration of digit formation
Neutite promoting factors (NPF), fibroblast growth factor, and laminin were instilled inside autologous venous nerve conduits (AVNC) interposed across a 1 cm gap in the rat sciatic nerve. Axonal regeneration was measured electrophysiologically and histologically and was compared to control AVNC and
