In the peripheral nervous system (PNS), myelinating Schwann cells express the gap junction protein connexin32 (Cx32) and lower levels of connexin43 (Cx43). Although the function of Cx43 in Schwann cells is not yet known, in adult mammals Cx32 is thought to form reflexive contacts within individual m
Axons of a cut peripheral nerve will grow across a gap ( < 10 mm in adult rodents) formed when the proximal and distal stumps are placed at opposite ends of an impermeable, inert tube, but will not grow to the end of a blind-ended tube in the absence of the distal stump Williams et al, 19841. Work r
