Abstract: The physiological significance of the node of Ranvier is now well known. The histological delineation of its length, however, still remains uncertain. Should it be identified as the gap ...

Non-Commercial (NC): Only non-commercial uses of the work are permitted. Myelination and the formation of nodes of Ranvier are essential for the rapid conduction of nerve impulses along axons in the ...

The team demonstrated that microglia establish direct contact with myelinated axons at nodes of Ranvier in the spinal cord, exhibiting a striking neuroprotective wrapping behavior following axonal ...

In the study, Merkel cells were evoked by mechanical stimulation or depolarizing currents, while the patch-clamps measured responses at the neurite heminode and first node of Ranvier in the ...

Find more information on the Altmetric Attention Score and how the score is calculated. Myelination and node of Ranvier formation play an important role in the rapid conduction of nerve impulses, ...

At regular distances from each other there are interruptions of the myelin, these are the Nodes of Ranvier. During the transmission of electrical signals, the signal jumps from one Node or Ranvier ...

ABSTRACT: Some basic physics of burgeoning quantum neuroscience is described. Anatomy of the neuron suggests that nonsynaptic mechanisms of signal transmittance occur via electric current acceleration ...

The role of lymphadenectomy in surgical management of endometrial cancer remains controversial. Lymph node metastases can be found in approximately 10% of women who before surgery are thought to have ...
