- 03:31Results: Fibular Nerve Injury is a Reliable Assay for Identifying Neuromuscular Junction Repair Factors
- 05:12Conclusion
We have developed a nerve injury method to reliably examine muscle reinnervation, and thus regeneration of neuromuscular junctions in mice. This technique involves injuring the common fibular nerve via a simple and highly reproducible surgery. Muscle reinnervation in then assessed by whole-mounting the extensor digitorum longus muscle.
