indicating a transverse section of myelinated nerve fibers. (D) Electron microscopy of a myelinated axon in a mouse optic nerve at higher magnification. The axon is surrounded by multilamellar ...

However, when Erbacher looked at skin tissue under the microscope, he noticed that nerve fibers did not just grow around skin cells but, to the whole team’s surprise, tunneled straight through them.

The image series shows cross-sectional electron micrographs of individual nerve fibers in MS brain biopsies. Axons sheathed with myelin (black rings) can be seen, showing increasingly severe ...

How does one nerve cell transmit the nerve impulse to another cell? Electron microscopy and other methods show that it does so by means of special extensions that deliver a squirt of transmitter ...

The entorhinal cortex (EC) plays a pivotal role in memory function and spatial navigation, connecting the hippocampus with the neocortex. The EC integrates a wide range of cortical and subcortical ...
