BDNF and CNTF protein expression in the rat nerve tissue harvested from transplantation site (western blot assay).

1: CEANA group; 2: CEANA + BDNF/BMSCs group; 3: CEANA + CNTF/BMSCs group; 4: CEANA + BDNF + CNTF/BMSCs group; 5: CEANA/BMSCs group. Recombinant plasmids pIRES-BDNF and pIRES-BDNF-CNTF were normally expressed in the nerve allografts normally expressed in the nerve allografts in the CEANA + BDNF/BMSCs and CEANA + BDNF + CNTF/BMSCs groups. Recombinant plasmids pIRES-CNTF and pIRES-BDNF-CNTF were normally expressed in the nerve allografts in the CEANA + CNTF/BMSCs and CEANA + BDNF + CNTF/BMSCs groups. CEANA: Chemically extracted acellular nerve allografts; BDNF: brain-derived neurotrophic factor; CNTF: ciliary neurotrophic factor; BMSCs: bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells. GAPDH: Glyceraldehyde phosphate dehydrogenase.
