Myelin, the protective sheath around nerve fibers, plays a crucial role in brain communication. It ensures fast and efficient ...

The drug, LL-341070, enhances the brain's ability to repair damaged myelin— the protective sheath around nerve fibers. Damage to myelin is a hallmark of diseases like MS, as well as a natural ...

Myelin biology and repair refers to the science of myelin physiology, manufacture, and how myelin damage in either the peripheral or central nervous systems can be repaired. Myelin – produced by ...

Myrobalan's experimental therapy MRO-002 is a GPR17 antagonist that's made to promote myelin repair in people with MS and ...

Blocking a death receptor causes damaged myelin, the protective coating surrounding nerve cells, to repair itself, according to a study published Sunday (July 3) in Nature Medicine. The finding ...

Much like the insulation around the wires in electrical systems, glial cells form a membraneous sheath surrounding axons called myelin, thereby insulating the axon. This myelination, as it is ...
