For decades, scientists have focused on amyloid plaques—abnormal clumps of misfolded proteins that accumulate between neurons ...
Multipolar neurons have a single axon and multiple dendrites. They are the most common neuron found in mammalian bodies. Neuron Function Synapses Neural synapses are junctions between neurons that ...
Stylized axon arbor of a neuron. Yellow circle: root vertex at the axon initial segment; red circles: bifurcation vertices; black circles: terminal vertices at the axon's synaptic terminals.
Between the axon of a transmitting neuron and the dendrite of a receiving neuron is a gap called the synapse—the site at which signals are passed between the brain cells. The nervous system ...
Additionally, removing cholesterol from the neuron’s membrane made it less stiff and more fluid-like, altering the axon’s shape and reducing pearling. Based on these results, Watanabe set out to test ...
Axon guidance is the pathfinding step that enables axons—the longest part of a neuron, through which the nerve impulse is ...
