Scaffold mediated delivery of drugs/genes for promoting nerve regeneration via gene silencing/pathway inhibition after traumatic nerve injuries
Axons damaged by traumatic injuries are unable to spontaneously regenerate in the adult central nervous system (CNS). Although the peripheral nervous system (PNS) has some regenerative capabilities, the ability of growth is often limited due to scar tissue formation that hinders axonal regeneration....
