During development of the central nervous system, neurons rely on target-derived factors to guide their outgrowing processes. Several CNS targetderived chemoattractive and repellant factors have been isolated and characterized, and their mechanism of action determined. For the peripheral nervous sys

The effects of hyaluronic acid (HA) on the proliferation and chondroitin sulfate (CS) synthesis of chondrocytes embedded in collagen gels were examined. Articular cartilage was isolated from the humerus, femur, and tibia of 21 10-weekold Japanese white rabbits. Chondrocytes isolated by collagenase d
## Background and objective: Severed tibial nerves in rats were repaired using a novel technique, utilizing a semiconductor diode-laser-activated protein solder applied longitudinally across the join. welding was produced by selective laser denaturation of solid solder bands containing the dye indo
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
Diffusible factors from the distal stumps of transected peripheral nerves exert a neurotropic effect on regenerating nerves in vivo (specificity). This morphological study was designed to investigate the existence of tissue specificity in peripheral nerve fiber regeneration through a graft of vein f
