An aligned nanofiber nerve conduit that inhibits painful traumatic neuroma formation through regulation of the RhoA/ROCK signaling pathway

The RhoA/ROCK signaling pathway has emerged as a critical player in the process of traumatic neuroma formation after neurectomy. It is possible that the nerve-capping technique could generate a "regenerative brake" based on the regulation of the RhoA/ROCK signaling pathway in this event. These findings may provide concrete evidence that could help develop new strategies for the management of painful neuromas.
