The multiplication or reproduction of Schwann cells by cell division, resulting in the expansion of their population in response to an axonal lesion. The newly generated Schwann cells support subsequent axon regeneration in the peripheral nervous system. The regrowth of axons following their loss or damage. The regrowth of neuronal processes such as axons or dendrites in response to their loss or damage. The regrowth of axons outside the central nervous system (outside the brain and spinal cord) following an axonal injury. Generation of a long process of a neuron, that carries efferent (outgoing) action potentials from the cell body towards target cells. A change in state or activity of a cell or an organism (in terms of movement, secretion, enzyme production, gene expression, etc.) as a result of an axon injury stimulus.
