Regeneration of jejunal wall defect using an implant based on silk fibroin fibers

Dokl Biochem Biophys. 2017 Jan;472(1):12-14. doi: 10.1134/S1607672917010045. Epub 2017 Apr 19.

Abstract

Regenerative properties of fibroin implant vitalized with allogeneic bone marrow cells were assessed. The study was performed using the experimental model of rat jejunum wall damage. Three weeks after surgery, we observed recovery of all layers of the jejunum wall at the site of injury and complete degradation of the implant material.
