Objective To comment on the recent advances of production and application of the bio-derived scaffold in the tissue engineered peripheral nerve. Methods The recent articles were systematically analyzed, and then the production methods of the bio-derived scaffold and its application to the tissue engineered peripheral nerve were evaluated and prospected. Results B iological tissues were processed by some methods to produce the bio-derived materials. These mat erials could maintain the structure and components of the tissues. Moreover, the immunogenicity of these materials was reduced. Conclusion Application of the bio-derived materials is a trend in the fabricating scaffold of the tissue en
gineered peripheral nerve.
