Transverse sections of sciatic nerve fibres.

Several fibres show lightly stained axons (Ax) surrounded by the partly extracted and precipitated eosinophilic myelin (My). This precipitated myelin presents a wheel-spoke configuration.

One nerve fibre shows a Schwann cell nucleus (Sc) in the crescentic cytoplasm surrounding the myelin.

A cluster of small nerve fibres (*) is indicated.

Stain: H–­­E
