The Early Life of a Schwann Cell
Biological Chemistry, 2002Schwann cells are the major glial population of the vertebrate peripheral nervous system. In the adult, they build a protecting sheath around neuronal processes and myelinate large-caliber axons. Already early in development, Schwann cells and neurons establish close contacts.

Imaging of Schwann Cells In Vivo
2011The ability to examine cells tagged with fluorescent proteins in vivo has led to exciting advances in molecular neurobiology. The integral role of Schwann cells in nerve regeneration is well characterized, but not until recently has dynamic imaging of these critical cells been possible.

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.

Axon-Schwann Cell Relationship
1984Publisher Summary The fast-conducting unmyelinated fibers of the squid offer exceptional opportunities for the study of the relationships between the axon and its satellite Schwann cells. The large size of the axon dictates a special axon–glia relationship, which consists in a multiplicity of Schwann cells necessary to cover up the perimeter of the ...
