[Evaluation of the regeneration process of the sciatic nerve of a mouse animal model after application of freezing, crushing or electrocoagulation damage].

The problem of regeneration of damaged peripheral nerves is an ongoing topic and has long been the subject of intensive research worldwide. This study examined the morphological and functional evaluation of the regeneration process within the damaged sciatic nerve, a mouse animal model. The effect of impaired expression of the TSC-1 gene on the process of nerve regeneration was evaluated, depending on the mode of damage.

[The mTOR pathway and transgenic animals with deletion of the TSC gene in the regeneration of the nervous system and selected models of sciatic nerve damage].

Traumatic damage to the nervous system has been a common occurrence for years, reducing patients' quality of life. The mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) pathway plays a key role in nervous system physiology, including by controlling nerve cell survival and differentiation. Excessive activation of the mTOR pathway leads to an increase in cell cycle protein activity and apoptosis of nerve cells.
