| 11. | Multiple sclerosis destroys these myelin sheaths, leading to a deterioration in nerve signal transmission.
|
| 12. | It is therefore of critical importance in the development and maintenance of myelin sheaths.
|
| 13. | The myelin sheath allows nerve cells to conduct signals faster.
|
| 14. | This underlines the importance of an active renewal of proteins in the myelin sheath.
|
| 15. | The axonal degeneration is followed by degradation of the myelin sheath and infiltration by macrophages.
|
| 16. | TGF-? have also been observed to induce Oligodendrocyte ( myelin sheath producing cells ) growth.
|
| 17. | The Nissl method was commonly used as well as myelin sheath stains and silver stains.
|
| 18. | Saltatory conduction provides one advantage over conduction that occurs along an axon without myelin sheaths.
|
| 19. | In fact, it's a breakdown in the protective coating, the myelin sheath, that surround nerves.
|
| 20. | Damage to the myelin sheath and nerve fiber is often associated with increased functional insufficiency.
