2011 journal article

The promotion of axon extension in vitro using polymer-templated fibrin scaffolds

Biomaterials, 32(21), 4830–4839.

By: J. Scott*, M. Afshari n, R. Kotek n & J. Saul *

author keywords: Fibrin; Micropatterning; Nerve guide; Nerve tissue engineering; Scaffold
MeSH headings : Axons / metabolism; Biocompatible Materials / chemistry; Elasticity; Fibrin / chemistry; Guided Tissue Regeneration / instrumentation; Guided Tissue Regeneration / methods; Materials Testing; Nerve Regeneration / physiology; Polymers / chemistry; Porosity; Tensile Strength; Tissue Scaffolds / chemistry
TL;DR: This work developed fibrin constructs fabricated by a sacrificial templating approach, yielding scaffolds with multiple 10-250 μm diameter conduits depending on the diameter of the template fibers, which showed mechanical properties comparable to native nerve. (via Semantic Scholar)
