(a) Schematic illustration of the core-shell configuration of the myelinated axon with efficient neural action potential transmission capability. The hydrogen bonds and Van der Waals forces between ...
Oligodendrocytes with different morphological features work together to support precise binaural integration for sound localization in the chick brainstem auditory circuit.

Axons are the brain’s information highways, transporting cellular cargo, chemical signals, and electrical impulses to other cells. These “roads” are typically depicted as smooth and cylindrical, with ...
Myelin is an insulating sheath around axons - the processes connecting nerve cells - that is mostly composed of lipids and proteins. It enables rapid conduction of electrical signals and supports ...
The ultrathin tendrils that zip messages around the nervous system are often drawn as smooth lines. But a new study adds some flourishes to that classical picture. Like a garland of cranberries hung ...
Different locations of neurotransmitter release sites in axon-bearing and anaxonic olfactory bulb dopaminergic neurons allow self-inhibition only in anaxonic cells, showing how polarity differences ...
