1. What are schwann cells? envelope nerve fibers in PNS. produce a myelin sheath multipolar, bipolar, unipolar and anaxonic oligodendrocytes, ependyal cells, microglia and astocytes
Fast anterograde and fast retrograde. Occurs at a rate of 20 to 400 mm/day
Schwann cells and satellite cells. masses of rapidly dividing cells. meninges (protective membrane of CNS), Metastasis from nonneuronal tumors in other organs. Often glial cells that are mitotically active throughout life spiral repeatedly around a single nerve fiber. support and protect the neurons. Prevents neurons from touching eachother and gives precision to conduction pathways motor proteins (kinesin and dynein) carry materials "on their backs" while they "crawl" along microtubules many dendrites but no axon. Help in visual processes movement away from the soma down the axon maintain structure. "nerve growth factors" secreted by astrocytes promote neuron growth and synapse formation
0.5 to 10 mm/day. always anterograde. moves enzymes governs speed of damged nerve fibers. two way passage along an axon
