Outline of Final Research Achievements

Objective: To determine the effect of transplanting normal human dermal fibroblasts (NHDF) in the rat facial nerve palsy model. Methods: Eight weeks old Wister male rats (250g) were used. Facial nerves were transected at buccal branch and marginal branch in 6 mm length under general anesthesia. Polimer tubes filled with NHDF plus matrigel were grafted between the cut nerves. Wisking amplitude was measured to determine the facial nerve function. Result: Wisking amplitude was gradually recovered in 8 week. However, the effect of NHDF was not significant.
