Tissue-engineered tendon grafts will meet an important clinical need. To engineer tendons, we used acellularized allogeneic tendon as scaffold material. To determine the ideal cell type to seed the scaffolds, we studied in vitro characteristics of epitenon tenocytes, tendon sheath fibroblasts, bone marrow–derived mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs), and adipoderived mesenchymal stem cells (ASCs). Subsequently,...
Nerve growth factor (NGF) is thought to play a role in the pathogenesis of neuroma formation as well as in the development of neuropathic pain. In this study we attempted to antagonize NGF by using trkA-IgG, an inhibitor of NGF, consisting of the NGF receptor linked to an immunoglobulin. It was delivered by an implanted osmotic pump directly to the site of a sciatic nerve transection in 16 rats for...
