Characterising cellular and molecular features of human peripheral nerve degeneration
Acta Neuropathologica Communications, 2020 Nerve regeneration is a key biological process in those recovering from neural trauma. From animal models it is known that the regenerative capacity of the peripheral nervous system (PNS) relies heavily on the remarkable ability of Schwann cells to ...
