Multi-factorial nerve guidance conduit engineering improves outcomes in inflammation, angiogenesis and large defect nerve repair
Matrix Biology(2022)
摘要
•ECM macromolecules Fibronectin, laminin 111 and laminin 211 (FibL1L2) drive peripheral nerve repair in a highly combination-specific manner.•Optimal FibL1L2 combinations are used to create nerve guidance conduits (NGCs) through snap-cooled, directional freeze drying.•Microgram changes in ratio of the same FibL1L2 constituents in NGCs results in significant changes in physiological behavior.•Use of a multi-factorial design produced a fibronectin, laminin 1 and laminin 2 NGC that minimised inflammation while maximizing angiogenesis, Schwann cell migration and axonal growth.•FibL1L2-enhanced NGCs demonstrate significant improvements in angiogenesis and axonal growth in vivo in large, 15 mm rat sciatic nerve defects at an early 8-week time point.
