Matrilin-2 with a K-Chitosan Scaffold Enhances Functional Recovery and Nerve Regeneration in a Segmental Rat Sciatic Nerve Injury Model

Matrilin-2 with a K-Chitosan Scaffold Enhances Functional Recovery and Nerve Regeneration in a Segmental Rat Sciatic Nerve Injury Model

<b>Background/Objectives:</b> Previous work in our lab demonstrated that a 3D scaffold containing lysine-modified chitosan (K-chitosan) and decorated with Matrilin-2 (MATN2) enhanced Schwann cell (SC) migration and axonal outgrowth in vitro and ex vivo. This study aimed to assess the reg...
