The segmentation lesion of peripheral nerve will seriously impair the motion and sensation of the patients, and the satisfactory recovery of segmented peripheral nerve by autograft or allograft is still a great challenge posing to the neurosurgery. Apart from autograft for nerve repair, different allograft has been studying. In this study, a scaffold fabricated with polylactic acid-co-glycolic acid (PLGA) copolymer and gelatin was evaluated to be a potential artificial nerve scaffold in vitro. The effect of different mass ratio between PLGA and gelatin upon the characteristics of PLGA-gelatin scaffolds such as microstructure, mechanical property, degradation behavior in PBS, cell adhesion property were investigated. The results showed the homogeneity and mechanical property of the scaffolds became poor with the increase of gelatin, and the rate of max water-uptake and the mass loss of scaffolds increases with the increase of gelatin, and the cells could adhere to the scaffolds. Those indicated the scaffolds fabricated by the PLGA-gelatin complex had excellent biocompatibility, suitable mechanical property and sustained-release characteristics, which would meet the requirements for artificial nerve scaffold.
