Outline of Final Research Achievements |
To improve usefulness of artificial nerve graft, we have proceeded the research to use end-to-side neurorrhaphy as Schwann cell provider to acellular nerve graft. In this research, we compared the effect of end-to-side neurorrhaphy to the acellular nerve graft to injecting Adipose-derived stem cells(ASCs). Both procedures improved functional recovery after the graft. However, the difference between two procedures were not obvious and there was no synergic effect even combining them simultaneously. We try to conduct further research to find even more effective use of end-to-side neurorrhaphy as Schwann cell provider to acellular nerve graft in the future.
