The cells that form the myelin are today called Schwann cells after him. Today, we know that the Schwann cells not only form the myelin sheath around neurons, but also regulate several neuronal functions and are an indispensable part of the PNS....
Boundary cap (BC) cells are neural crest derivatives that form clusters at the surface of the neural tube, at entry and exit points of peripheral nerve roots. Using various knock-in alleles of the mouse gene Egr2 (also known as Krox20), the expression of
You also have glial cells in yourperipheral nervous system(PNS), which is made up of all the nerves in your body that are away from your spine (like your arms and legs). The two types of glial cells in the PNS are: Schwanncells Satellite cells1 What Makes Up the Peripheral Nervous Sy...
One of the main functions of innervation has been attributed to axonal sprouting of neurons and their associated secretome of growth factors released in the wound bed upon injury5,7,8. However, non-neuronal cells of the PNS have also been associated with wound healing. In particular, cells ...
The support cells of the PNS are Schwann cells and satellite cells (Bear & Paradiso, 2007). Although the role of satellite cells is currently being investigated, what is known is that satellite cells sheath the cell bodies of neurons located in the ganglia of the PNS (Catala & Kubis, 2013...

The main glial cells of the PNS and CNS can be identified both in situ and in culture by the use of combinations of different antibodies which act as markers for the different cell types. The particular combination of antibodies chosen depends very much on the developmental stage and anatomical...
4.2Satellite glial cells Satellite glial cells(SGCs) are peripheral glia which ensheath neuronal cell bodies within ganglia (i.e., those found in the DRG). They support normal sensory transmission andnociceptionby maintaining metabolic and ionic homeostasis. In models of neuropathy and peripheral inf...
Schwann cells regulate the development of the three main cell types in nerves: neurons, connective tissue cells, and, via autocrine circuits, the Schwann cells themselves. Myelination depends on the coordination of a battery of glial structural proteins that are responsible for the architecture of ...
The glial cells missing (gcm) gene in Drosophila encodes a novel nuclear protein that is transiently expressed early in the development of nearly all glia. In loss-of-function gcm mutant alleles, nearly all glia fail to differentiate, and, where we can follow them in the PNS, are transformed...
