| Organogel Canada Ltée TRANSMISSION ELECTRON MICROSCOPY | | This microphotograph summarise the role of NeuroGel™ as support matrix in the cellular and neural restoration of a chronic lesion of the spinal cord. Note how the regenerating tissue moulds onto the microgeometry of the hydrogel implant. This rat showed some degree of recovery of its motor function. | | This microphotograph is from a rat spinal cord that underwent a compression injury followed, three months later, by a graf of NeuroGel™ (until stabilisation of the post-injury neurodegeneratif processes) (see Figure compression model in scientific results). One observe the growth of myelinated nerve fibres (Ax) through the pores of NeuroGel™ (P, are the polymer aggregates) as well as the presence of glial cells (at for astrocyte and Sc for Schwann cell). |
