This project aims to enhance nerve regeneration after injury by applying controlled tensile forces to neurons using magnetic nanoparticles. It seeks to translate laboratory findings into practical applications for nerve repair.
Although the exact mechanisms involved in the growth of axons is still incompletely understood, it is clear that force is a crucial factor for both axonal guidance and lengthening.
Indeed, there is a growing body of evidence indicating the importance of physical stimuli for neuronal growth and development.
Results of published experimental studies indicate that forces, when carefully controlled, act as powerful stimulators of axonal lengthening.
This proposal seeks to develop, test and evaluate…
