In the first experiment, plastic surgeons transplanted Pedot into the injured leg of mice. Subsequently, new nerve fibers grow out and "take over" the damaged nerve fibers, so as to rejuvenate the necrotic muscles.
In the second experiment, the researchers made a "cup" containing cells, muscles, Pedot substance and mouse nerves, and then transplanted this "cup" into the injured leg of the mouse. 1 14 days later, new blood vessels and muscles began to form, nerve fibers grew again, and animals' senses began to recover.
Che Dellner hopes to carry out human experiments within three years, and make the first artificial arm with "artificial nerve" within 10 years. These "artificial nerves" will be connected to the microchip sensor on the prosthesis, which can transmit brain signals like natural nerves, so as to realize two-way communication between the prosthesis and the brain, so that people with prostheses can distinguish between cold and hot and have a sense of touch.
"Artificial nerve" technology will eventually enable amputees to play the piano in the future and make artificial hands feel like real hands. In this way, the brain does not need to recognize this process again, because the' artificial nerve' already carries all those signals.
