Abstract: Brazil. Conception, design and scientific content of the study, critical revision. ABSTRACT PURPOSE:To evaluate the capacity of natural latex membrane to accelerate and improve the regeneration quality of the of rat sciatic nerves. METHODS:Forty male adult Wistar rats were used, anesthetized and operated to cut the sciatic nerve and receive an autograft or a conduit made with a membrane derived from natural latex (Hevea brasiliensis). Four or eight weeks after surgery, to investigate motor nerve recovery, we a… Show more

“…When P1 protein is applied to the sectioned sciatic nerve, there is improved functional gait and preservation of muscle structure . LLLT at 660 nm with a density of 10 and 60 J/cm 2 , applied transcutaneously to the crushed sciatic nerve, restructured the muscle fibers; however, LLLT at 780 nm did not prevent muscle atrophy …”
