Myelin is an insulating layer of lipids and proteins surrounding nerves. Myelin damage can cause problems with the nerves’ ability to send and receive electrical messages. Inflammatory disorders ...
The problem Oligodendrocytes (OLs) produce the myelin sheaths that electrically insulate axons. Although most OLs are generated in the early postnatal period, oligodendrocyte progenitors (OPs) ...

Following an injury, such as a traumatic crush injury, the peripheral nervous system is itself often able to effectively ...
“The paper shows very clearly that the ability to generate new myelin is necessary for adult mice to learn a complex motor task,” said the University of Michigan’s Gabriel Corfas, author of an ...
The drug, LL-341070, enhances the brain's ability to repair damaged myelin— the protective sheath around nerve fibers. Damage to myelin is a hallmark of diseases like MS, as well as a natural ...
"We first carried out simple ex vivo experiments by isolating ... this mechanism of metabolizing fatty acids from the myelin ...
Demyelination refers to damage to the myelin around nerves. Myelin coats many nerves in the body, but it can become damaged due to inflammation from viral infections, autoimmune diseases ...

A long fibre (axon) which is insulated by a fatty (myelin) sheath. They are long so they can carry messages up and down the body. Tiny branches (dendrons) which branch further as dendrites at each ...
