oligodendrocytes
Schwann cells are functionally similar to oligodendrocytes in the central nervous system. They both provide support and insulation to nerve fibers by forming a myelin sheath around them, which helps in the transmission of nerve signals. Schwann cells are found in the peripheral nervous system while oligodendrocytes are found in the central nervous system.
Schwann cells and oligodendrocytes
This questions has been answered below in the related discussions, "what are Schwann cells"
Schwann cells are glia that myelinate the neurons of the Peripheral Nervous System
The Remaining Schwann Cells schwann cells, after injury and disruption to target, the remaining schwann cells undergo a rapid mitotic division until the target tissue is reached and the successful pathway is regenerated under the structural guidance of the schwann cells,
The female reproductive organ that is functionally similar to the male testes is the ovaries. They store the female reproductive cells, the eggs. However, unlike the testes, they do not make the reproductive cells.
They are called oligodendrocytes but in the peripheral nervous system you would call them schwann cells.
Theodor Schwann concluded that all animal tissues were made of cells.
