Abstract:
Objective To investigate the amplifying results of repairing degenerated distal receptor nerves with normal proximal donor nerves.Methods The study was carried out on 12 adult male SD rats that randomly derided into degeneration group and control group.The distal tibial nerve stumps as receptor nerve were denervated for 8 weeks before cross-sutured with partial freshly transected proximal common peroneal nerve stumps in the degeneration group,while in the control group,freshly transected distal tibial nerve stumps were sutured with partial freshly cut proximal common peroneal nerve stumps.The motor nerve conduction (MCV),muscle rigidity contraction force were measured,the histological examinations were carried out and the numbers of myelinated axons were calculated 3 months after the operation.Results The degeneration group showed a poorer regeneration capacity than the control group (P<0.05).The MCV were (16.992 ± 3.737) m/s,(23.092 ± 2.788) m/s respectively;The ratio of muscle force were (39.642 ±5.865)% and (71.098± 6.778)% respectively.The regenerated myelinated nerve fiber number were 1718.2± 282.0 and 3340.0 ± 506.5 respectively in degeneration group and control group.The amplifying ratio of the degeneration group and control group were 1.581 ± 0.329 and 3.098 ± 0.642.Conclusion The amplifying results of repairing the degenerated nerves are poorer than repairing the freshly injury distal nerves with the freshly transected proximal donor nerves,the results demonstrate a progressive inability of chronically degeneration of the distal nerve to support axonai regeneration.
