Oligodendrocytes are a type of large glial cell found in the central nervous system. Oligodendrocytes produce the myelin sheath insulating neuronal axons (analogous to Schwann cells in the ...

Background: Currently, malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumors (MPNST) are the subject of intense research interest. However, bibliometric studies have not been conducted in this field. The purpose ...

BACKGROUND: Plexiform neurofibromas represent a common neoplasia of type 1 neurofibromatosis in which neurofibromas arise from multiple nerves involving connective tissue and skin and rarely affect ...

Schwann cells, which are also known as neurolemmocytes, provide the myelin sheath that protects the axons of nerve cells.

Collective cell migration is fundamental for the development of organisms and in the adult for tissue regeneration and in pathological conditions such as cancer. Migration as a coherent group requires ...

After nerve injury, myelin and Remak Schwann cells reprogram to repair cells specialized for regeneration. Normally providing strong regenerative support, these cells fail in aging animals, and during ...

Vestibular schwannomas (VSs) are benign tumors composed of differentiated neoplastic Schwann cells. They can be classified into two groups: sporadic VS and those associated with neurofibromatosis type ...

Based on improved transduction efficiency, all other SC cultures were transduced using both lentiviruses simultaneously: 10 000 cells were transduced with 10–20 multiplicity of infection of ...
