Cellular senescence and proliferation are essential for wound healing and tissue remodeling. However, senescence-proliferation cell fate after peripheral nerve injury has not been clearly revealed. Here, post-injury gene expression patterns in rat sciatic nerve stumps (SRP113121) and L4–5 dorsal root ganglia (SRP200823) obtained from the National Center for Biotechnology Information were analyzed to decipher cellular senescence and proliferation-associated genetic changes. We first constructed a rat sciatic nerve crush model. Then, β-galactosidase activities were determined to indicate the existence of cellular senescence in the injured sciatic nerve. Ki67 and EdU immunostaining was performed to indicate cellular proliferation in the injured sciatic nerve. Both cellular senescence and proliferation were less vigorous in the dorsal root ganglia than in sciatic nerve stumps. These results reveal the dynamic changes of injury-induced cellular senescence and proliferation from both genetic and morphological aspects, and thus extend our understanding of the biological processes following peripheral nerve injury. The study was approved by the Animal Ethics Committee of Nantong University, China (approval No. 20190226-001) on February 26, 2019.
