مستخلص: Background: The hypothesis of this study was that trigeminal nerve stimulation (TNS) or peripheral nerve stimulation (PNS) could improve functional outcomes of peripheral nerve injury in a rat forelimb model when compared to control rats not receiving electrical stimulation (ES). While PNS is known to improve outcomes after nerve surgery, the role of TNS has not been explored.
Methods: Lewis rats were trained to perform a reach and grasp task before receiving a 2 mm gap repair of the ulnar and median nerves and randomized into four treatment groups: (1) sham injury, (2) nerve injury with sham ES, (3) nerve injury with PNS, and (4) nerve injury with TNS. Functional motor (median pull force and percent success in motor task) and sensory metrics (forelimb paw withdrawal thresholds) were collected both pre-injury and throughout rehabilitation. Nerves stained using Gomori's trichrome were assessed quantitatively and qualitatively.
Results: The sham ES group did not recover their pre-injury baseline functional outcomes. In contrast, the TNS and PNS groups fully recovered following injury, with no difference in functional outcomes between the pre-injury baseline and the final week of rehabilitation (P > 0.05, all). Histomorphology results demonstrated no quantitative difference, but qualitative differences in architecture were evident.
Conclusions: Electrical stimulation of the trigeminal nerve or the injured nerve improved the functional outcomes of nerve regeneration in rodents. Histomorphology results of nerves from the TNS group support the proposed central mechanisms. This is an important step in translating this therapy as an adjunct, non-invasive treatment for high, mixed nerve injuries in humans.
