Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -In the peripheral nervous system, neuroglia comprise Schwann cells, satellite glia and enteric glia. These functionally diverse and specialised cells are fundamental to function at the molecular, cellular, tissue and system levels.
Detailed explanation-2: -Schwann cells (SCs), named after German physiologist Theodor Schwann (1810–1882), are the main neuroglial cells of the peripheral nervous system (PNS).
Detailed explanation-3: -The function of glial cells in the PNS Glial cells play an important role in maintaining the health of peripheral nerves and ensuring proper communication between them and the CNS. Two main types of glial cells develop in this region: Schwann cells and satellite cells.
