Mechanism of phagocytosis by Schwann cells
Journal of the Neurological Sciences, 198633B rat Schwannoma cell line is known to exhibit phagocytic properties analogous to those of normal Schwann cells. The mechanism of phagocytosis by this cell line was investigated by studying the effect of known modulators of phagocytosis on the uptake of latex particles by these cells. Treatments which block energy production of the host cell, such as

Intermediate Filaments of Schwann Cells
Journal of Neurochemistry, 1982Abstract: Intermediate filaments were prepared from distal stumps of rabbit sciatic nerve 5 weeks after nerve section, at which time Schwann cells account for 85–90% of the cell area. A polypeptide of molecular weight 58,000 was the main component of this fraction. An antiserum raised in guinea pig against this polypeptide stained all cells present in

Schwann cells transplanted into the CNS
International Journal of Developmental Neuroscience, 1993AbstractA small volume of purified Schwann cells, cultured from early postnatal rat sciatic nerve, was injected into the hippocampus or fimbria of syngeneic adult hosts. The procedure caused minimal structural disturbance at the transplantation site, with close graft‐host contact and maximal opportunity for integration.The donor Schwann cells were ...

Abstract Medical eponyms often reflect a single outstanding discovery or a major contribution by the honored person to a particular field of the healing arts. The case of Theodor Schwann, however, represents a somewhat different situation.

Schwann Cell Dysfunction in Acromegaly
The Journal of Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism, 1970ABSTRACT The pathologic features observed in a sural nerve biopsy from a subject with acromegalic peripheral neuropathy are presented. Examination of individually teased nerve fibers revealed diffuse segmental demyelination. Since each internodal segment represents the territory occupied by a single Schwann cell, the presence of the segmental loss of ...

Cytokine and chemokine interactions with Schwann cells: the neuroimmunology of Schwann cells
2007INTRODUCTION Cytokines, first described as products of the cells of the inflammatory/immune system, are increasingly recognised as acting on non-inflammatory cells as well as being produced by non-inflammatory cells. Nowhere is this more apparent than with cells of the peripheral (PNS) and central (CNS) nervous systems.

Schwann Cell Development and Myelination
Cold Spring Harbor Perspectives in BiologyGlial cells in the peripheral nervous system (PNS), which arise from the neural crest, include axon-associated Schwann cells (SCs) in nerves, synapse-associated SCs at the neuromuscular junction, enteric glia, perikaryon-associated satellite cells in ganglia, and boundary cap cells at the border between the central nervous system (CNS) and the PNS ...

Isolation and Culture of Schwann Cells
2013Primarily cultured Schwann cells are essential for the investigation of molecular mechanisms regulating proliferation, survival, differentiation, and myelination of Schwann cell and for the development of efficient transplantation for regeneration of injured spinal cord or peripheral nervous system.
