These cells are responsible for forming a Remak bundle.
Krox-20 is required for these cells to function. Tumors composed of these cells exhibit Antoni A and Antoni B patterns. These cells are responsible for forming a Remak bundle. These are the primary cells that express the proteins P0 and PMP22; mutations in the genes that encode those proteins can cause Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease. The differentiation of these cells is controlled by endothelin and neuregulin-1. Following Wallerian degeneration, these cells can dedifferentiate. These cells are associated with only one internodal segment. These cells are derived from the neural crest. Although found in a different part of the body, these cells serve in the same role as oligodendrocytes. For 10 points, name these neuroglial cells that myelinate the nerves of the peripheral nervous system.
