Research Abstract |
This scientific research in rehabilitation medicine was performed in order to clarify the pathological changes and repair mechanism of neuromuscular junction after tibial nerve denervation. The factors related to the maintenance and repair of neuromuscular junction function were studied by immunohistological observation and molecular biology analysis. Our results indicated that a factor relevant to muscle repair and a factor participant in neuromuscular junction maturity were increased. Further investigation is needed to ascertain the correlation between those factors.
