myelination

myelination Myelination is the process in which oligodendrocyte precursor cells develop in ways that produce myelin, a covering that gives neurons structural and metabolic support and helps nerve signals travel efficiently along axons.

Myelination is the process in which oligodendrocyte precursor cells develop in ways that produce myelin, a covering that gives neurons structural and metabolic support and helps nerve signals travel efficiently along axons. When myelin is lost, neurons become more vulnerable and can undergo degeneration, contributing to lasting disability.
