Axon initial segments (AISs) and nodes of Ranvier are sites of action potential generation and propL agation, respectively. Both domains are enriched in sodium channels complexed with adhesion ...
Jianguo Gu, Ph.D., Edward A. Ernst Endowed Chair and professor in the Department of Anesthesiology and Perioperative Medicine, is the latest winner of the School of Medicine’s Featured Discovery. This ...
Researchers have achieved patch-clamp studies of an elusive part of mammalian myelinated nerves called the Nodes of Ranvier. At the nodes, they found unexpected potassium channels that give the ...
This is a preview. Log in through your library . Abstract Electric organs in Sternarchidae are of neural origin, in contrast to electric organs in other fish, which are derived from muscle. The ...
The assembly of neuronal specializations is sometimes reminiscent of building structures with Lego blocks: some pieces can attach only to specific partners, and there are blocks that you cannot ...
Oligodendrocytes with different morphological features work together to support precise binaural integration for sound localization in the chick brainstem auditory circuit.
3D reconstruction of electron microscopy images showing a perinodal astrocyte (blue), node of Ranvier (gray), compact myelin (purple), and layers of myelin detaching from the axon (tan). Disclaimer: ...
Researchers from the University of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus have discovered a new way the brain processes and communicates information that could lead to improved learning in those suffering ...
