Application of Nanotechnology in Neural Growth Support System

Carbon nanotubes, having their capacity to transmit electric impulses, contact with neurons, & simulate the neuronal surroundings, have been appealing possibilities for the creation of scaffolding that could facilitate neuronal growth and division. The researchers created biodegradable composite scaffolding made up of inter carbon nanotubes disseminated in the poly-L-lactic acid substrate that could promote the growth and development of human brain cells. The researchers also created synthesized peptides generated from the L1 and LINGO1 enzymes to mimic the guidance inputs of the neuronal environment. Such peptides may greatly impact neural conversion, which would be enhanced synergistically by a conjunction of a nanocomposite scaffolding & also proteins, implying a model of the presence of long-neuronal growth factor implantation.
