Previous work from this laboratory demonstrated a relation between ability to regenerate a limb and number of nerve fibers available per unit area of amputation wound. Animals with fewer fibers than the newt, Triturus, (for example, Rana, Anolis, and Mus) do not regrow the limb. An exception appeare

The effect of age upon the axoplasmic transport of glycerophospholipids has been studied using as a model the regenerating sciatic nerve of young (2-month-old), young adult (6-month-old), middle-aged (16-month-old), and aged (20-month-old) male rats. The right sciatic nerve was crushed 0.5 mm down t
## Abstract Poor functional recovery found after peripheral nerve injury has been attributed to the misdirection of regenerating axons to reinnervate functionally inappropriate muscles. We applied brief electrical stimulation (ES) to the common fibular (CF) but not the tibial (Tib) nerve just prior
