Following injury to a peripheral nerve, changes in the behavior of Schwann cells help to define the subsequent microenvironment for regeneration. Such changes, however, have almost exclusively been considered in the context of Wallerian degeneration distal to an injury, where loss of axonal contact or input is thought to be critical to the changes that occur. This supposition, however, may be incorrect in the...
