Numbers of nerve endings as determined by AchE immunostaining at eight weeks postimplantation. (A) Normal TA muscle; (B) TA muscle in the silicone tube group; (C) TA muscle in the PCL/F127 NGC group; and (D) the calculated mean number ratios of nerve endings in the denervated TA muscles to those in the normal sides. The mean number ratios were 7.83±1.83% (PCL/F127 NGC group) and 55.75±6.13% (silicone tube group), which were significantly different. Arrow, nerve ending; n=20; bar, 100 μm; *p<0.05).
