Apoptosis of sensory neurons and satellite cells after sciatic nerve transection in C57BL/6J mice
The rate of axonal regeneration, after sciatic nerve lesion in adult C57BL/6J mice, is reduced when compared to other isogenic strains. It was observed that such low regeneration was not due just to a delay, since neuronal death was observed. Two general mechanisms of cell death, apoptosis and necro...
