Remnant neuromuscular junctions in denervated muscles contribute to functional recovery in delayed peripheral nerve repair

Remnant neuromuscular junctions in denervated muscles contribute to functional recovery in delayed peripheral nerve repair

Schwann cell proliferation in peripheral nerve injury (PNI) enhances axonal regeneration compared to central nerve injury. However, even in PNI, long-term nerve damage without repair induces degeneration of neuromuscular junctions (NMJs), and muscle atrophy results in irreversible dysfunction. The p...
