Peripheral berve regeneration through nerve conduit composed of alginate-collagen-chitosan

Abstract: Although the peripheral nerve system has a relatively good regenerating capacity compared to the central nerve system, peripheral nerve repair remains a clinical challenge as restoration of normal nerve function is highly variable. Synthetic tubular nerve conduits were designed as an alternative repair method in order to replace the need for an isograft. These nerve conduits guide regenerating axons from the proximal toward the distal end, maintain within growth-promoting molecules released by the nerve stumps… Show more

“…Biodegradable materials used in the nerve tissue engineering can be grossly divided into two groups. One consists of natural polymers such as collagen, gelatin, chitosan and alginate [15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22], and the other includes synthetic polymers such as PGA, PLLA, etc. [8][9][10][11].…”

“…In recent years, enormous efforts have been made to fabricate the synthetic nerve conduits for the repair of peripheral nerve defects, and different kinds of biomaterials have been studied, such as polyglycolic acid (PGA) [2], poly(L-lactide-coglycolide) (PLGA) [8,9], poly(3-hydroxybutyrate) (PHB) [10,11], gelatin [12][13][14], collagen [4,8,[15][16][17][18], chitosan [2,[19][20][21][22] and silk [23,24]. And it is still an active area of intense research to seek new biomaterials with more favourable properties and more flexible processing methods [24].…”

“…A large body of research has been conducted to investigate different kinds of biomaterials for neural tissue engineering including, synthetic materials such as poly(glycolic acid) (PGA) [7], poly( l -lactide-co-glycolide) (PLGA) [8,9], poly(3-hydroxybutyrate) (PHB) [10,11] and natural biopolymers such as gelatin [1214], collagen [3,8,1519], chitosan [7,2023] and silk [24,25]. Synthetic materials are attractive as neural tissue engineering scaffolds because of the ease in tailoring the degradation rate and mechanical properties of these materials to suit the application.…”
