Biology and Pathology of Perineuronal Satellite Cells in Sensory Ganglia

This volume provides a comprehensive and updated review of perineuronal satellite cells in sensory ganglia. For a long time since their discovery by Valentin in the first half of the 19th century these cells received only modest attention. However, some years ago research findings suggested that sat...
