Immediate or Delayed Transplantation of a Vein Conduit Filled with Nasal Olfactory Stem Cells Improves Locomotion and Axogenesis in Rats after a Peroneal Nerve Loss of Substance.
Model: Left common peroneal nerve 3 mm segment excised 5 mm distal to the sciatic trifurcation, bridged with a 1 cm autologous femoral vein conduit leaving a 3 mm gap
OEMSC improved locomotor recovery, partially preserved the fast contractile phenotype (maximal rate of relaxation improved in the delayed graft arm, p<0.05) and increased axon numbers in medial and distal nerve segments, with no benefit on muscle mass, G-ratio or metabosensitive afferent responses.…
