The Neurobiology of Schwann Cells
Brain Pathology, 1999 This selective review of Schwann cell biology focuses on questions relating to the origins, development and differentiation of Schwann cells and the signals that control these processes. The importance of neuregulins and their receptors in controlling Schwann cell precursor survival and generation of Schwann cells, and the role of these molecules in ...

Heme Oxygenase 1 in Schwann Cells Regulates Peripheral Nerve Degeneration Against Oxidative Stress
ASN Neuro, 2019 During Wallerian degeneration, Schwann cells lose their characteristic of myelinating axons and shift into the state of developmental promyelinating cells.

Frontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2019 While it is proposed that interaction between Schwann cells and axons is key for successful nerve regeneration, the behavior of Schwann cells migrating into a nerve gap following a transection injury and how migrating Schwann cells interact with ...

Ablation of Dicer from murine Schwann cells increases their proliferation while blocking myelination. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2010 The myelin sheaths that surround the thick axons of the peripheral nervous system are produced by the highly specialized Schwann cells. Differentiation of Schwann cells and myelination occur in discrete steps.

Neurobiology of Disease, 2010 Schwann cells are the myelinating glia cells of the peripheral nervous system (PNS). In inflammatory neuropathies like the Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS) Schwann cells become target of an autoimmune response, but may also modulate local inflammation. Here,

TNFα promotes oral cancer growth, pain, and Schwann cell activation
Scientific Reports, 2021 Oral cancer is very painful and impairs a patient’s ability to eat, talk, and drink. Mediators secreted from oral cancer can excite and sensitize sensory neurons inducing pain.

Inhibition of Schwann Cell Pyroptosis Promotes Nerve Regeneration in Peripheral Nerve Injury in Rats
Mediators of Inflammation, 2023 Background. Peripheral nerve injury (PNI) is one of the most debilitating injuries, but therapies for PNI are still far from satisfactory. Pyroptosis, a recently identified form of cell death, has been demonstrated to participate in different diseases ...

Autophagy is involved in the reduction of myelinating Schwann cell cytoplasm during myelin maturation of the peripheral nerve. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 Peripheral nerve myelination involves dynamic changes in Schwann cell morphology and membrane structure. Recent studies have demonstrated that autophagy regulates organelle biogenesis and plasma membrane dynamics.
