Morphological evaluation of the regenerated nerve. TEM showed that the myelin sheath was larger and thicker in (a) the control group and (c) dANS group than (b) the hANS group. Myelin was present in (a) the control group, (b) hANS group, and (c) dANS group by toluidine blue staining. The hANS group had more irregular myelinated fibers in minicompartments. For myelin analysis, (g) the number of myelinated fibers, (h) the diameter of myelinated fibers, (i) the myelination thickness, and (j) the g-ratio were quantitatively evaluated and compared by statistical analysis. Values are expressed as the mean ± SD. ^∗Compared with the autograft group, p < 0.05. ^#Compared with dANS group, p < 0.05.
