Schwann cells are a type of satellite cell that function similarly to oligodendrocytes in the CNS. They create a myelin sheath around nerves, which helps insulate them for faster conduction.

Schwann cell disturbance followed by segmental demyelination in the peripheral nervous system occurs in diabetic patients. Since Schwann cell and oligodendrocyte remyelination in the central nervous ...

Schwann cells and even artificial beads bound to the axonal surface can mimic these constraints and promote differentiation. Together, these results describe the coordinately controlled biophysical ...

Astrocytes Oligodendrocytes Microglia Ependymal cells Radial glia You also have glial cells in your peripheral nervous system (PNS), which is made up of all the nerves in your body that are away from ...

Enteric glia help the gut digest food, for instance, and a type of glia called Schwann cells, sisters to the brain’s oligodendrocytes, spread myelin on peripheral nerves to help speed signals along.

Major glial cells include astrocytes, microglia and oligodendrocytes in the central nervous system (CNS) as well as Schwann cells in the peripheral nervous system (PNS). Glial cells are critical in ...

The paper should nevertheless be of interest to the myelin field and serve as the basis for future, more mechanistic, studies. Reviewer #2: Following up with their work studying CMTM6 deletion in PNS ...

New research reveals for the first time that despite the fragility of axons, Schwann cells — which surround axons within nerves like a glove covers a hand — can come to the assistance of injured axons ...
