Biodegradable magnesium wire promotes regeneration of compressed sciatic nerves
Neural Regeneration Research, 2016 Magnesium (Mg) wire has been shown to be biodegradable and have anti-inflammatory properties. It can induce Schwann cells to secrete nerve growth factor and promote the regeneration of nerve axons after central nervous system injury. We hypothesized that

A Rabbit Model for Peripheral Nerve Reconstruction Studies Avoiding Automutilation Behavior
Journal of Brachial Plexus and Peripheral Nerve Injury, 2022 Background The rabbit sciatic nerve injury model may represent a valuable alternative for critical gap distance seen in humans but often leads to automutilation. In this study, we modified the complete sciatic nerve injury model for avoiding autophagy.

Lack of evidence for sprouting of Aβ afferents into the superficial laminas of the spinal cord dorsal horn after nerve section [PDF]
, 2003 The central arborizations of large myelinated cutaneous afferents normally extend as far dorsally as the ventral part of lamina II in rat spinal cord. Woolf et al. (1992) reported that after nerve injury some of these afferents sprouted into lamina I and

The potential role of sciatic nerve stiffness in the limitation of maximal ankle range of motion
Scientific Reports, 2018 It is a long held belief that maximal joint range of motion (ROM) is restricted by muscle tension. However, it exists indirect evidence suggesting that this assumption may not hold true for some joint configurations where non-muscular structures, such as
