The Potential of Acellular Dermal Matrix Combined With Neural Stem Cells Induced From Human Adipose-Derived Stem Cells in Nerve Tissue Engineering.
[INTRODUCTION] Reconstruction of segmental peripheral nerve gap is still challenging when the autografts are unavailable owing to limited availability of donor site and functional recovery. The creation of artificial conduits composed of bi…
