Plast Reconstr Surg 126(6):1874-89 (2010) PMID 21124128

HEK-293 cells can be genetically modified to release and regulate nerve growth factor (NGF) in vitro. The aim of this study was to evaluate the impact of this NGF delivery system on peripheral nerve regeneration in vivo.

    We investigated the directionality of neuronal migration of sensory ND7/23 cells on aligned electrospun poly(lactic-glycolic acid) PLGA fibers in the range of micrometer and submicrometer diameters by time-lapse microscopy. Cell trajectories of single ND7/23 cells were found to significantly follow...

    Nerve growth factor (NGF) is a signalling protein that interacts with specific receptors in autocrine, paracrine and endocrine modes. It is produced by bladder smooth muscle and urothelium. Patients with overactive bladder and detrusor overactivity (DO) have been found to have increa...
