Axonal regeneration and innervation ratio following supercharged end-to-side nerve transfer by Leopold Harnoncourt, Martin Schmoll, Christopher Festin, Laurenz Pflaum, Markus Breuss, Johanna Klepetko, Dominik C. Dotzauer, Florian J. Jaklin, Udo Maierhofer, Philipp Tratnig-Frankl, Oskar C. Aszmann, Oskar C. Aszmann

“…Retrograde labeling demonstrated motor neuron regeneration of both the MCN and UN in a distal direction toward the muscle; however, tracer uptake of the UN motor neurons following intramuscular tracer application was detected only in Group C. In contrast, stained pseudounipolar cells in the dorsal root ganglia associated with the UN and MCN revealed afferent muscle innervations in Groups B and C.DiscussionThis novel SETS nerve transfer model enables isolated electrophysiological as well as histological evaluations of all nerve sections to determine the muscle innervation ratio exactly. …”
