Transmembrane NRG1 acts as a promyelinating factor, while the soluble isoform inhibits myelination. In this perspective, we would like to emphasize this conflicting role played by NRG1 isofbrms regarding their roles in myelination, remyelination and the entire process of peripheral nerve regeneration.展开更多
