Combinatorial approaches using Schwann cells, olfactory ensheathing cells and growth factors or factors limiting tissue damage are expected to pave the way for more efficient autologous glial-cell ...

Glial cells help providing nutrition and support ... Schwannomas arise from Schwann cells. These cells surround and insulate cranial nerves. Schwannomas are slow growing tumors.

the key to future research breakthroughs may reside in cells known as Schwann cells. These glial cells that form the protective shell around axons may play a more active role in the breakdown of ...
