A laminin graft replaces neurorrhaphy in the restorative surgery of the rat sciatic nerve

We investigated the role of laminin in functional recovery of a peripheral nerve injury using electrophysiological and behavioral approaches on the rat sciatic nerve in vivo. These studies were complemented by neurofilament protein immunocytochemistry on the sciatic nerve 20 days after an operation,...
