The answer is Regeneration of Neural Tissues

Axon regeneration has three phases: sprouting, elongation, and maturation (McQuarrie, 1983). As Schwann cells dedifferentiate and proliferate, the proximal stumps of the axons sprout by the actin-driven formation of growth cones (Sinicropi and McIlwain, 1987).
