Damage to myelin, the protective sheath surrounding nerve fibers, impairs the brain's ability to transmit signals efficiently ...
Discover the shocking findings of a study on microplastic pollution in human brain tissue. Explore the sources and possible ...
Microplastics are accumulating in human brains at alarming rates, with concentrations rising 50% in the past eight years. Researchers found plastic fragments as small as 200 nanometers, possibly ...
University of New Mexico Health Sciences researchers have detected microplastics in human brains at much higher concentrations than in other organs – and the plastic accumulation appears to be growing ...

The bottom inset presents a magnified view of a myelinating Schwann cell, with a myelin sheath deposited along the length of the axon. Nodes of Ranvier are observed at the meeting point of adjacent ...
In the PNS, myelin sheaths from glial cells acted as insulators and sped up the transmission of signals from neurons, which was one of the important functions of SC. Peripheral nerve regeneration ...
