Genetically engineered minipigs model the major clinical features of human neurofibromatosis type 1. [PDF]
Neurofibromatosis Type 1 (NF1) is a genetic disease caused by mutations in Neurofibromin 1 (NF1). NF1 patients present with a variety of clinical manifestations and are predisposed to cancer development.

Electrophysiology of mammalian Schwann cells
Schwann cells are the satellite cell of the peripheral nervous system, and they surround axons and motor nerve terminals. The review summarises evidence for the ion channels expressed by mammalian Schwann cells, their molecular nature and known or speculated functions.

Dysregulation of NAD+ metabolism induces a Schwann cell dedifferentiation program [PDF]
The Schwann cell (SC) is the major component of the peripheral nervous system (PNS) that provides metabolic and functional support for peripheral axons. The emerging roles of SC mitochondrial function for PNS development and axonal stability indicate the

Changes of Nerve Growth Factor Synthesis in Nonneuronal Cells in Response to Sciatic Nerve Transection [PDF]
The intact sciatic nerve contains levels of nerve growth factor (NGF) that are comparable to those of densely innervated peripheral target tissues of NGF-responsive (sympathetic and sensory) neurons.
