Myelin phagocytosis by macrophages and nonmacrophages during Wallerian degeneration
Abstract
The literature concerning Schwann cells (SCs) and macrophages in myelin phagocytosis during Wallerian degeneration is reviewed. SCs carry out the first step in the removal of myelin by segmenting myelin and then incorporating the degraded myelin. The recruited macrophages then join in the myelin‐phagocytosis event, appearing to make full use of their original phagocyte abilities until the end of myelin clearance. The molecular mechanisms of the two cells underlying myelin phagocytosis are thought to be different; myelin phagocytosis by SCs being lectin‐mediated, i.e., opsonin‐independent, whereas that of macrophages is mainly opsonin‐dependent. It is important to note that SCs and macrophages cooperatively accomplish myelin phagocytosis. Microsc. Res. Tech. 57:541–547, 2002. © 2002 Wiley‐Liss, Inc.

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.
