The disruption of axons—the thread-like part of nerve cells that transmits electrical signals—is associated with Alzheimer’s disease. One way axonal function may be hindered is through damage to the ...

They create a myelin sheath around nerves, which helps insulate them for faster conduction. Additionally, these cells help repair damaged axons and can even regenerate them.

A study led by Cambridge researchers has shed light on how neural stem cell grafts could help restore myelin in the central ...

In Alzheimer’s disease (AD), disruptions in myelin and axonal structures occur, although the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. Here the authors show that, at the myelin–axon interface ...

A study by Cambridge researchers has shed light on how neural stem cell grafts could help restore myelin in the central nervous system. The findings suggest that neural stem cell-based therapies hold ...
