Following severance of a nerve the section below the level of the injury undergoes a series of characteristic changes, the essential features of which are the degeneration and removal of the axon and its myelin sheath, the proliferation of Schwann cells and the conversion of the nerve fiber encircle
We have tested the stimulation of Schwann cell migration from the distal stump of a 1 week transected sciatic nerve of adult rats by denervated skeletal muscle. Migrating Schwann cells were distinguished by the presence of non-specific cholinesterase (nChE) activity and glial fibrillary acidic prote
