## Abstract In addition to their role in action potential generation and fast synaptic transmission in neurons, voltage‐dependent sodium channels can also be active in glia. Terminal Schwann cells (TSCs) wrap around the nerve terminal arborization at the neuromuscular junction, which they contribut
