Introduction
Schwann cells wrap around nerve axon processes outside of the central nervous system. These cells in development originate from neural crest cells migrating out along the developing nerve fibers and these cells differentiate to form myelin sheaths that surround the mature nerve.
The cells are named after their original discoverer a German physiologist Theodor Schwann (1810 - 1882).
