Grafting to repair cavernous nerve. Rats were subjected to cavernous nerve (CN) dissection and then grafted with ADMT or with ADSC-seeded ADMT. A. Seeded ADMT was grafted below the major pelvic ganglion (MPG). Three months after grafting, the matrices were examined by EdU staining for the presence of seeded ADSC, by DAPI staining for cell nuclei, and by immunostaining for S100 or nNOS expression. B. The number of cells was nearly twice as great on the seeded matrix as on the unseeded matrix. C. Unseeded matrix immunostained for S100. D. Unseeded matrix immunostained for nNOS. E. Seeded matrix immunostained for S100. F. Seeded matrix immunostained for nNOS. Note the presence of EdU-positive cells (arrowheads) along the nerve fiber.
