| Abstract: | Summary Schwann cell cultures were established from sciatic nerve of 3 day-old rats. Described are the ultrastructural, histochemical and ultracytochemical properties of amyelic cultured rat Schwann cells. Ultrastructural characteristics of the cultured Schwann cells are compared to the Schwann cells of 3 day-old and adult rat sciatic nerve. These findings serve as a basis for comparison when studying experimentally induced alterations in the cultured Schwann cells as well as changes due to myelination in vitro. |
