Growth factor expression in normal and diabetic rats during peripheral nerve regeneration through silicone tubes.

Abstract:

:The silicone tube model of regeneration has proved to be an invaluable tool for experimental studies aimed at understanding expression of growth factors during normal and abnormal metabolic states of regeneration. Since the morphological parameters of nerve growth and myelination are well-defined and easily identified in this model, the expression of both diffusible and intracellular-acting growth factors can be readily correlated with the occurrence of these cellular events. These studies facilitate the study of the cellular and molecular events that accompany regeneration. Further, because the sciatic nerve can be traced up to its corresponding neurons, growth factor gene expression can also be studied by in situ hybridization and Northern blotting techniques. This is particularly important in defining the cell source of extracellularly released growth factors. Finally, and most importantly, the regeneration process in the normal or diseased metabolic state (such as diabetes) can be manipulated via the administration of adjuncts to the tube that either promote or inhibit regeneration. Further studies in this regard, and in the identification of growth factors involved and their role during regeneration should shed some light on the pathogenesis and possible means of mitigating or reversing diabetic neuropathy.
