Sulfatase-mediated manipulation of the astrocyte-Schwann cell interface. (2017)
Journal Article
Turnbull, J., & Guimond. (2017). Sulfatase-mediated manipulation of the astrocyte-Schwann cell interface. Glia, 19 - 33. https://doi.org/10.1002/glia.23047

Schwann cell (SC) transplantation following spinal cord injury (SCI) may have therapeutic potential. Functional recovery is limited however, due to poor SC interactions with host astrocytes and the induction of astrogliosis. Olfactory ensheathing cel...
