Abstract
Current therapies have limited capacity to curtail disease
progression or damage of the central nervous system (CNS) of
adult mammals and successful regeneration following injury or
disease does not occur. Regeneration of the CNS is limited by
physical and chemical inhibitory barriers within the injured
environment and the absence of positive cues that elicit and
guide repair. Neural tissue engineering strategies focus on
developing scaffolds that artificially generate favourable
cellular microenvironments that attempt to tip the balance in
favour of regeneration. Some recent advances using scaffolds to
promote regeneration within the CNS, particularly in conjunction
with stem cells, has generated promising results. This review
focuses on hydrogel scaffolds which have been used extensively
in neural tissue engineering applications and addresses the
physical and chemical modifications of these materials to
promote nerve regeneration. © 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
