The researchers discovered that the missing piece of myelin resulted in slower and less consistent signal transmission to the thalamus. "We had anticipated this, because myelin is known to be ...

Myelin biology and repair refers to the science of myelin physiology, manufacture, and how myelin damage in either the peripheral or central nervous systems can be repaired. Myelin – produced by ...

CNS remyelination is the regenerative process by which myelin sheaths are restored to demyelinated axons. Unlike the poor regeneration that occurs following neuronal injury, remyelination can occur as ...
