Abstract:Spinal cord injury (SCI) has been implicated in neural cell loss and consequently motor/sensory impairment. In this study, we propose a new formation for fibrous mat fabrication from derivatives of poly vinyl alcohol (PVA) and gelatin (Gela) through horseradish peroxidase (HRP) mediated crosslinking, which provide sustained release of methylprednisolone (MP) that can be utilized as a therapeutic approach for SCI repair. The polymeric solution of PVA/Gela conjugated with phenolic moieties (PVAPh and GelaPh, res… Show more
