Abstract (original English)
Background The accomplishment for desired functional peripheral nerve regeneration is still challenging despite various materials and methods. The effects of local application of omental adipose mesenchymal stromal cell-derived microvesicles (MVs) on peripheral nerve regeneration were studied using a rat sciatic nerve transection model. Methods A 10-mm gap of sciatic nerve was bridged with a chitosan conduit. The rats were divided into five experimental groups randomly as follows: cultured undifferentiated omental adipose-derived stromal cells, rest mesenchymal stem cell-derived MVs (c-MVs), anti-inflammatory mesenchymal stem cell-derived MVs (anti-MVs), proinflammatory mesenchymal stem cell-derived MVs (pro-MVs), and negative control (Chit). Results The functional assessment of nerve regeneration (walking track analyses), electrophysiologic measurements, muscle mass measurements, as well as histomorphometrical and immunohistochemical indices showed drastic improvement in nerve regeneration in c-MVs and anti-MVs animals compared with pro-MVs animals (p Conclusion The anti-inflammatory stem cell-derived MVs can be used as an alternative for the improvement of rat sciatic nerve regeneration.
What this study does not prove
