Modeling the Effects of Drug Delivery Systems and Nerve Growth Factor (NGF) on Damaged Nerve Regeneration

Abstract

Abstract. Nervous tissues are one of the most important body tissues and any disorder in their performance will cause serious complications in trend of one’s life. Today, these types of disorders can be repaired and restored using drug delivery systems and presentation of effective growth factors at the damaged area. In this study, mechanisms of effect and degree of efficacy of Nerve Growth Factors (NGF) have been modeled during nerve regeneration process. Then, with changing initial value of one of parameters, some changes, which are formed during restoration trend of tissue, have been modeled at two various modes, details of which have been compared in two ideal modes.
