A review about the role of additives in nerve tissue engineering: growth factors, vitamins, and drugs.

Notably the integration of additives such as growth factors, vitamins, and drugs with scaffolds promoted nerve tissue engineering. This study tried to provide a concise review of all these additives that facilitates nerve regeneration. An attempt was first made to provide information on the main principle of nerve tissue engineering, and then to shed light on the effectiveness of these additives on nerve tissue engineering.
