Cell Type Overview
Schwann cells are the principal glial cells of the peripheral nervous system (PNS). Myelinating Schwann cells wrap around single axons to form the myelin sheath, enabling fast saltatory conduction. Non-myelinating Schwann cells ensheath multiple small-diameter axons. Schwann cells are crucial for supporting axon health and guiding regeneration after PNS injury, forming regeneration tubes (Bands of Bรผngner) that direct axonal regrowth.
