Abstract:Vitamin C (VC) is an essential supplement that plays an important role in cellular processes and functions and has been applied for therapeutic purposes for many years. Recently, the beneficial effects of VC on peripheral nerve regeneration have been gained lots of attention. In this study, electrospun polycaprolactone (PCL)/polyglycerol sebacate (PGS) fibers incorporated with different concentrations of VC (5, 10, and 15 wt.%) were developed for peripheral nerve tissue engineering. The morphology of the fiber… Show more
