The rule of proliferation after sciatic injury of rats: immunohistological observation / 中华外科杂志

ABSTRACT

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To describe the rule of the schwann cell proliferation after peripheral nerve injury in detail and to discover the effect of neuroanastomosis.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>The model of rat sciatic injury was made, with neuroanastomosis on the left side and right side untreated. Then draw the materials 24, 48 h, 4, 7, 14, 21 d after surgery. And immunohistological stain counted the schwann cell per view with Qwin software of Leica Ltd.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>The number of schwann cell increased obviously 4 d after surgery and reached the peak in 7 d. Then it fell down and the neuroanastomosis group changed slower and fibroblast hyperplasia in the untreated.</p><p><b>CONCLUSIONS</b>The axon support is essential for the schwann cell. The precise rule is help for study on neurotrophic factor.</p>
