Mechanisms and treatment strategies of demyelinating and dysmyelinating Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease
Schwann cells, the myelinating glia of the peripheral nervous system, wrap axons multiple times to build their myelin sheath. Myelin is of paramount importance for axonal integrity and fast axon potential propagation.
