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

## Abstract In order to further improve and explore the role of lasers for nerve reconstruction, this study was designed to investigate regeneration of sharply transected peripheral nerves repaired with a CO~2~ milliwatt laser in combination with three different suture materials and a bovine albumi
## 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
## Abstract The rates of axonal regeneration and initial delay in motor and sensory axons of cyclophosphamideβtreated and control rat sciatic nerves after cold injury were determined by using fast axoplasmic transport. The rates in motor and sensory nerves were not significantly different between t
