Controlled release of FK506 from micropatterned PLGA films: potential for application in peripheral nerve repair

Controlled release of FK506 from micropatterned PLGA films: potential for application in peripheral nerve repair

After decades of research, peripheral nerve injury and repair still frequently results in paralysis, chronic pain and neuropathies leading to severe disability in patients. Current clinically available nerve conduits only provide crude guidance of regenerating axons across nerve gap without addition...
