NRG1 type I dependent autoparacrine stimulation of Schwann cells in onion bulbs of peripheral neuropathies

Onion bulbs are a hallmark of demyelinating peripheral neuropathies. Here the authors identify Neuregulin-1 type I expression in Schwann cells as an essential mechanism involved in the formation of these characteristic structures.
