A two-compartment organotypic model of mammalian peripheral nerve repair
2014
Background
Schwann cells in the distal stump of transected nerve upregulate growth factors that support regeneration on a modality-specific basis. It is unclear, however, which of these preferentially support motor axon regeneration. Identification of these factors will require a model that can isolate growth factor effects to growing axons while reproducing the complex three-dimensional structure of peripheral nerve.
