We have investigated the effect of basic fibroblast INTRODUCTION growth factor (bFGF) on the proliferation and phenotype of differentiated oligodendroglia. Using primary cell cultures enriched in oligodendrocytes but containing few 02A-oligodendrocyte progenitor cells, we demonstrate that bFGF treat

## Abstract An experimental study on the rat sciatic nerve was performed to evaluate nerve regeneration through a collagen guide and to study the effects of Ξ±βmelanocytic stimulating hormone (Ξ±βMSH) and basic fibroblast growth factor (bβFGF) in accel erating axonal elongation. After transection, ne
In this study, nerve guides composed of poly(D,L-lactide) (PDLLA) were fabricated and used in the repair of transected sciatic nerves (15-mm gaps) of rats. Nerve guides with a two-ply structure (inner layer dense, outer layer microporous) were prepared by controlling the solvent evaporation rate. Th
