Journal ArticleDOI

Functional regeneration beyond the glial scar.

TL;DR: Evidence that this aggregate scar acts as the major barrier to regeneration of axons after injury is reviewed and several exciting new interventions that allow axons to regenerate beyond the glial scar are considered.
Journal ArticleDOI

Creation of highly aligned electrospun poly-L-lactic acid fibers for nerve regeneration applications.

TL;DR: Together, this work presents methods by which to produce highly aligned fiber scaffolds efficiently and techniques for assessing neurite outgrowth on different Fiber scaffolds, while suggesting that crossing fibers may be detrimental in fostering efficient, directed axonal outgrowth.
Journal ArticleDOI

Varying the diameter of aligned electrospun fibers alters neurite outgrowth and Schwann cell migration.

TL;DR: Fiber diameter is an important parameter to consider when constructing aligned, electrospun fibers for nerve regeneration applications because in some situations, topography alone is sufficient to guide neurites without the leading support of SCs.
Journal ArticleDOI

Robust CNS regeneration after complete spinal cord transection using aligned poly-L-lactic acid microfibers.

TL;DR: It is reported that aligned microfiber-based grafts foster robust regeneration of vascularized CNS tissue and outline a form of regeneration within the central nervous system that holds important implications for regeneration biology.
