Writer's Answer
Dr. Brian M., MD


Remak cells, named after Polish-born Robert Remak (1815-1865) (pictured) , are Schwann cells which do not myelinate, but rather surround unmyelinated peripheral nerve fibers. According to Greenfield's Neuropathology (8th Edition) , "unmyelinated axons are always of small diamter and pass through the nerve trunk in groups of 8-15 within a common chain of Schwann cells".
