Current solutions see nerve injuries with large gaps treated by grafting nerves harvested from other areas of the patients body.the researchers hope to develop the silk nerve guides into an off-the-shelf solution to treat nerve injuries in humans.
Animal silks offer exceptional mechanical and biological properties and versatile manufacturing possibilities to assist the re-engineering of tissue.The innovation was tested in rats whose right sciatic nerve had been cut and revealed that the damaged nerves adapted to the novel silk nerve guides and grew along the silk threads until the severed endings successfully reconnected.They can only be used to bridge very small distances due to a lack of an appropriate structure along which the regenerating tissue can orient itself and grow.
Natural materialsNatural materials are ideal for use as nerve guides as they degrade over time and produce hardly any immune response in animal models.Nerve guides made of natural or synthetic materials are often used as surgical tools for nerve repair.
This study provides further evidence of the incredible regenerative properties of silk within the nervous system and demonstrates its exciting utility and potential as a material to address the unmet clinical need for an off-the-shelf technology to treat nerve injuries.
Our advanced silk-in-silk nerve guides combine the excellent ability of silkworm silk to be processed into three-dimensional structures with the outstanding cell adhesion qualities of spider dragline silk.Approximately half of these companies revealed that ChatGPT had already replaced a lot of their personnel.
” it had achieved 90% on US bar examinations and an almost perfect score on the SAT math test for high school students. “I’m particularly worried that these models could be used for large-scale disinformation.
He is more concerned with the people who will be in charge of the technology than with the technology itselfwere giving people more agency and making technology more accessible through the most universal interface — natural language.
