Increase of Nerve Regeneration Capacity by New Neurotrophic Pyrimidine Derivative MS-430

1. We studied whether a new neurotrophic pyrimidine compound, MS-430, can increase the regeneration length of the transected sciatic nerve in a silicone chamber gap of 14 mm. 2. The average length of regenerated myelinated axons in ten cases was 9.0±0 mm in the control group, 2.8±1.9 mm in the 1 mg/...

Zusammenfassung:1. We studied whether a new neurotrophic pyrimidine compound, MS-430, can increase the regeneration length of the transected sciatic nerve in a silicone chamber gap of 14 mm. 2. The average length of regenerated myelinated axons in ten cases was 9.0±0 mm in the control group, 2.8±1.9 mm in the 1 mg/kg/day of the MS-430 group and 5.0±5.1 mm in the 3 mg/kg/day of the MS-430 group, indicating that the average length was significantly larger in the 3-mg group than that in the control group ( P
