Abstract

The development of effective treatments for patients
with peripheral nerve injury is an urgent task of biomedicine.
«Gold» standard in restoring the integrity of nerve conduits is
auto-nerve transplantation in which a peripheral nerve defect
is corrected with autologous nerve graft. Here we propose
a method for stimulating revascularization and regeneration
of auto-nerve graft by a local injection of plasmid pBud-VEGFFGF2,
expressing vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF)
and basic fibroblast growth factor (FGF2). It is shown that
direct injection of plasmid pBud-VEGF-FGF2 in the proximal
and distal segments of nerve, as well as in the auto-nerve
graft, stimulates the regeneration of the rats sciatic nerve
and restores motor activity.
