- W1997846279 abstract "As a common feature of many neurological diseases and injury, the loss of axon pathways can have devastating effects on function. Here, we demonstrate a new strategy to restore damaged axon pathways using transplantable miniature constructs consisting of living neurons and axonal tracts internalized within hydrogel tubes. These hydrogel microconduits were developed through an iterative process to support neuronal survival and directed axon growth. The design included hollow agarose tubes providing a relatively stiff outer casing to direct constrained unidirectional outgrowth of axons through a central soft collagen matrix, with overall dimensions of 250 μm inner diameter ×500 μm outer diameter and extending up to several centimeters. The outer casing was also designed to provide structural support of neuronal/axonal cultures during transplantation of the construct. Using neuron culture conditions optimized for the microconduits, dissociated dorsal root ganglia neurons were seeded in the collagen at one end of the conduits. Over the following week, high-resolution confocal microscopy demonstrated that the neurons survived and the somata remained in a tight cluster at the original seeding site. In addition, robust outgrowth of axons from the neurons was found, with axon fascicles constrained in a longitudinal projection along the internal collagen canal and extending over 5 mm in length. Notably, this general geometry recapitulates the anatomy of axon tracts. As such, these constructs may be useful to repair damaged axon projections by providing a transplantable bridge of living axons. Moreover, the small size of the construct permits follow-on studies of minimally invasive transplantation into potentially sensitive regions of the nervous system." @default.
