Myelin is a concentrically laminated membrane structure surrounding an axon around which lamellae (or cellular protrusions) repeat radially at a period of about 12 nm (Waxman, Kocsis & Stys 1995 ...
Opening and closing ion channels changes the membrane potential. When the neuron is triggered, it activates voltage-gated sodium channels at the beginning of the axon. This causes an influx of ...
Scale bar, 20 μm. (C) The neuronal axon is a long membrane-bounded extension, in which neurofilaments (a class of intermediate filament in neurons) form a structural matrix that embeds ...
This important study identifies a new key factor in orchestrating the process of glial wrapping of axons in Drosophila wandering larvae. The evidence supporting the claims of the authors is convincing ...
Axons are covered in myelin. Myelin protects the axons and helps carry axon messages as quickly as possible. Myelin is made of membrane layers and covers an axon. This is similar to the idea of an ...
