Recombinant human fibroblast growth factor-2 promotes nerve regeneration and functional recovery after mental nerve crush injury

Several studies have shown that fibroblast growth factor-2 (FGF2) can directly affect axon regeneration after peripheral nerve damage. In this study, we performed sensory tests and histological analyses to study the effect of recombinant human FGF-2 (rhFGF2) treatment on damaged mental nerves. The m...
