Figure 1.

Adult female New Zealand White rabbits underwent baseline toe-spread testing. A 40 mm common peroneal nerve gap injury was repaired using BNIs with sustained release of either NRG1, PTN, or PTN+NRG1. Toe-spread index was evaluated weekly starting at week 5 and until week 28, time at which the nerves were re-exposed for muscle and nerve physiology, followed by euthanasia and tissue harvesting.
