axon znaczenie & definicja

Przykłady axon

• As the stimulus became larger, more long-range axons were recruited into the collective oscillation, thereby increasing the gain of the feedback circuit.

• From the peripheral retina, where there is little fasciculation, axons converge on the optic disc.

• Although far less frequent, some axons were seen to be ensheathed by an oligodendrocytic process; such axons were counted as 'myelinated'.

• Myelinated axons are organized into a series of polarized domains that are crucial for normal saltatory conduction.

• Regressive events such as cell death and the elimination of long axon collaterals and dendritic processes are essential mechanisms of brain maturation.

• Each pattern is broadcast through the brain by divergent-convergent axon projections.

• When conventional symmetrical biphasic pulses were used, there was little selectivity between activation of local cells and activation of axons of passage.

• As a result, the nodal length in larger axons (>1 mm) is significantly reduced in transgenic mice compared with their wild-type littermates.
