Data on the effect of in vivo knockdown using artificial ErbB3 miRNA on Remak bundle structure

Data in Brief, 2017
Mature Schwann cells, the peripheral nervous system (PNS) glial cells, have two major roles for neuronal axons (Bunge, 1993) [1]. For large diameter axons, Schwann cells form myelin sheaths with multiple layers.

Schwann Cells of the Bone Marrow [PDF]

Blood, 1970
Abstract Nerves containing numerous Schwann cells can be found in bone marrow with routine histological methods. Thin nerve bundles and single nerve fibers containing Schwann cells can be identified histologically with help of methods which demonstrate nerve fibers and myelin. Smears of marrow stained with the May-Grünwald-Giemsa method

Glial Fibrillary Acidic Protein Astrocytopathy Based on a Two‐Center Chinese Cohort Study

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Glial fibrillary acidic protein astrocytopathy (GFAP‐A) is a recently defined nosological form belonging to the class of autoimmune inflammatory disorders affecting the central nervous system (CNS). Here, we report the clinical and MRI characteristics, treatment, and prognosis of a GFAP‐A cohort from two centers in China.

TNFα mediates Schwann cell death by upregulating p75NTR expression without sustained activation of NFκB

Neurobiology of Disease, 2005
Administration of tumour necrosis factor α (TNFα) to axotomised mouse neonatal sciatic nerves increased Schwann cell apoptosis in the distal nerve segments, 5-fold greater than axotomy alone.

Calcium Signaling in Schwann cells

Neuroscience Letters, 2020
In addition to providing structural, metabolic and trophic support to neurons, glial cells of the central, peripheral and enteric nervous systems (CNS, PNS, ENS) respond to and regulate neural activity. One of the most well characterized features of this response is an increase of intracellular calcium.

Engineering Topographical Cues to Enhance Neural Regeneration in Spinal Cord Injury: Overcoming Challenges and Advancing Therapies

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Spinal cord injury (SCI) poses significant challenges for regeneration due to a series of secondary injury mechanisms. How to use biomaterial approach to target the failed regeneration after SCI remains a critical challenge. This review systematically evaluates current strategies to optimize biomaterial topographies for neurite outgrowth, axonal ...

Nucleoporin Seh1 maintains Schwann cell homeostasis by regulating genome stability and necroptosis

Cell Reports, 2023
Summary: Schwann cells play critical roles in peripheral neuropathies; however, the regulatory mechanisms of their homeostasis remain largely unknown. Here, we show that nucleoporin Seh1, a component of nuclear pore complex, is important for Schwann cell

Sensory Schwann cells set perceptual thresholds for touch and selectively regulate mechanical nociception

Nature Communications
Previous work identified nociceptive Schwann cells that can initiate pain. Consistent with the existence of inherently mechanosensitive sensory Schwann cells, we found that in mice, the mechanosensory function of almost all nociceptors, including those ...
