Effect of Citicoline Loaded PHBA Tubular Grafts on Axonal Regeneration in Sciatic Nerve Injury : An Experimental Approach as an Autograft Alternative
PHBA-based tubular graft with oriented nanofiber structure containing citicoline supports peripheral nerve regeneration. Although our results are not better than autograft, it may be a promising alternative for cases where autologous graft is not available.
