Neural tissue engineering techniques typically face a significant challenge, simulating complex natural vascular systems that hinder the clinical application of tissue-engineered nerve grafts (TENGs). Here, we report a subcutaneously pre-vascularized TENG consisting of a vascular endothelial growth factor-induced host vascular network, chitosan nerve conduit, and inserted silk fibroin fibers. Contrast agent perfusion, tissue clearing, microCT scan, and blood vessel 3D reconstruction were carried out continuously to prove whether the regenerated blood vessels were functional. Moreover, histological and electrophysiological evaluations were also applied to investigate the efficacy of repairing peripheral nerve defects with pre-vascularized TENG. Rapid vascular inosculation of TENG pre-vascularized blood vessels with the host vascular system was observed at 4 ​d bridging the 10 ​mm sciatic nerve defect in rats. Transplantation of pre-vascularized TENGin vivosuppressed proliferation of vascular endothelial cells (VECs) while promoting their migration within 14 ​d post bridging surgery. More importantly, the early vascularization of TENG drives axonal regrowth by facilitating bidirectional migration of Schwann cells (SCs) and the bands of Büngner formation. This pre-vascularized TENG increased remyelination, promoted recovery of electrophysiological function, and prevented atrophy of the target muscles when observed 12 weeks post neural transplantation. The neural tissue-engineered pre-vascularization technique provides a potential approach to discover an individualized TENG and explore the innovative neural regenerative process.
