Gap injuries of peripheral nerves, resulting from trauma or neurosurgical procedures, presage badly, for the presence of the distal stump of the nerve seems to be indispensable for regeneration. The standard grafting method requires a lesion of a healthy nerve, and therefore various substitutional m

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of systemic co-injections of ciliary neurotrophic factor (CNTF) and brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) on the functional recovery of transected sciatic nerves repaired by epineurial coaptation (EC) or collagen tubulization (CT). Forty Spr
## Abstract This study was conducted to elucidate the role of the cytokine interleukin‐1 beta on peripheral nerve recovery following crush injuries of wo different magnitudes. Eighty‐eight female rats were divided into four groups. A 5‐mm segment of the right sciatic nerve was subjected to a 100‐g
## Abstract Computerized rat gait analysis has become an invaluable technique of functional evaluation for some peripheral nerve investigators, comparing the normal and the pathological kinematic data. Appropriate selection of the methods to evaluate the functional outcome should be sensitive enoug
## Abstract Previous studies have demonstrated the potential of growth factors in peripheral nerve regeneration. A method was developed for sustained delivery of nerve growth factor (NGF) for nerve repair with acellular nerve grafts to augment peripheral nerve regeneration. NGF‐containing polymeric
## Abstract This study evaluates the effect of crushing load on functional recovery of the sciatic nerve. Male Sprague‐Dawley rats were divided into five groups: sham operation, resected sciatic nerve, and 100 g (13 mm Hg/mm^2^), 500 g (50 mm Hg/mm^2^), and 15,000 g (1,000 mm Hg/mm^2^) of sciatic c
