| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this study, we aimed to examine the mechanism and regenerative potential of dental pulp stem cells for peripheral nerve regeneration compared with control conduits without dental pulp stem cells and autografts in a system of nude rat sciatic nerve defect. A 10 mm gap in sciatic nerve regenerate 2 weeks after injury in control conduits without dental pulp stem cells. It need more investigation of method for culturing dental pulp stem cells in collagen tube as scaffold.
