What are the steps of axon regeneration?
What are the steps of axon regeneration? Axon regeneration has three phases: sprouting, elongation, and maturation (McQuarrie, 1983). As Schwann cells dedifferentiate and proliferate, the proximal stumps of the axons sprout by the actin-driven formation of growth cones (Sinicropi and McIlwain, 1987). What is responsible for axon regeneration? After peripheral nerve injury, axons readily regenerate. […]
