Definition of Myelinated. Meaning of Myelinated. Synonyms of Myelinated

- In the CNS, non-myelinated axons (or intermittently myelinated axons, meaning axons with long non-myelinated regions between myelinated segments) intermingle...
- oligodendrocytes (non-myelinating oligodendrocyte subtype), microglia, and very few myelinated axons. White matter is composed of myelinated axons, fibrous astrocytes...
- that make up the nerve. These impulses are extremely fast, with some myelinated neurons conducting at speeds up to 120 m/s. The impulses travel from one...
- and the group C nerve fibers. Group A are heavily myelinated, group B are moderately myelinated, and group C are unmyelinated. The other classification...
- occurs at the nodes of Ranvier in oligodendrocytes. The impulse speed of a myelinated axon increases linearly with the axon diameter, whereas the impulse speed...
- a very high level of spatial and temporal organization in myelinated fibers. The myelinating glial cells - oligodendrocytes in the central nervous system...
- oligodendrocytes myelinate nerves differ. A Schwann cell usually myelinates a single axon, completely surrounding it. Sometimes, they may myelinate many axons...
- simple circuit. Myelinated axons only allow action potentials to occur at the unmyelinated nodes of Ranvier that occur between the myelinated internodes....
- cells form the myelin sheath of a myelinated axon. Oligodendrocytes form the insulating myelin in the CNS. Along myelinated nerve fibers, gaps in the myelin...
- vertebrates are myelinated; for example, axons of the neurons comprising the autonomous nervous system are not, in general, myelinated. Myelin prevents...
