Corneal nonmyelinating Schwann cells illuminated by single‐cell transcriptomics and visualized by protein biomarkers. Journal of Neuroscience Research , 2020; DOI: 10.1002/jnr.24757 Cite This Page : ...

Researchers from Gutenberg University Mainz (JGU) and at the Swiss University of Fribourg have now found that the Schwann cells and axons may be behind this regeneration process.

Although Schwann cells and immune cells may employ phagocytosis later in the cleanup process, the new findings indicate that in the first 5-7 days after injury, when 40-50% of the myelin is ...

Schwann cell autophagy, myelinophagy, initiates myelin clearance from injured nerves. The Journal of Cell Biology , 2015; 210 (1): 153 DOI: 10.1083/jcb.201503019 Cite This Page : ...

Neuroscience researchers at UConn Health are uncovering genetic properties of Schwann cells in the cornea that may lead the way to a better understanding of their role in healing and sensory function.

The main glial cells within the nervous system are astrocytes, oligodendrocytes, microglia, ependymal cells, and Schwann cells. ... (enlargement) of both their cell bodies and their processes.

Myelin-making Schwann cells have an ability every aging Hollywood star would envy: they can become young again. According to a study appearing in the May 19 issue of the Journal of Cell Biology ...

But Schwann cells are hard to come by in useful numbers. So researchers have been taking readily available and noncontroversial mesenchymal stem cells (also called bone marrow stromal stem cells that ...

A new study published on February 3, in an article in the journal Nature Communications, delves into how Schwann cells that envelop peripheral pain receptors transmit intense pain signals around ...

Neuroscience researchers at UConn Health are finding genetic properties of Schwann cells in the cornea that may unlock a better understanding of their role in healing, sensory function, preserving ...
