Schwann cell precursors and their development
Abstract
During development of peripheral nerves, an apparently homogeneous pool of embryonic Schwann cells gives rise to two morphologically and antigenically distinct mature Schwann cell types. These are the myelin‐forming cells associated with axons of larger diameter and the non‐myelin‐forming cells associated with axons of smaller diameter. The development of these cells from precursors that can be identified in early embryonic nerves can be followed with the help of antigenic differentiation markers. This development depends on Schwann cells retaining a close association with axons. The effect of axons can be mimicked in vitro by agents that elevate cAMP levels. This has given rise to the idea that the effects of axon‐associated signals in Schwann cell development are to a significant extent mediated via elevation in Schwann cell cAMP levels. In vitro, the cAMP induced progression of cells from a premyelination state to a myelination state depends on withdrawal from the cell cycle. It is therefore possible that in vivo, the timing of myelin formation by individual Schwann cells is determined by signals that suppress proliferation.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
