It is widely presumed that Schwann cells and glial cells modify the interactions of neurons with the extracellular environment in several ways, in addition to the formation and maintenance of myelin . In particular, it is thought that these cell types control the composition of the medium that gains access to the neuronal surface (see, e .g ., references 2, 7, 10, 14, 26, 29, 30) and perhaps also play active roles in transfer of specific molecules to neurons (16, 29) .
