SCHWANNS CELL

The Schwanns cells, or neurilemma, are layers of cells which cover the myelin sheath segments of some nerve cells. Schwanns cells cover each axon segment of the nerve cells, and constrict at the nodes of Ranvier. The neurons of the brain and spinal cord do not have such a cell layer covering their myelin sheaths.
