It is hoped that the cells will lay down sheaths of myelin an insulator essential for conducting nerve impulses around injured neurons,
The nerve impulses from these cells are led then via the optic nerve to the visual cortex where they create impressions of sight.
and thoughts using electrical impulses called action potentials, which provoke calcium ions to stream into each cell as it fires.
along which nerve impulses travel, and glial cells, which support neurons is hidden essentially. yelin is made by a glial cell wrapping around an axon cell,
The retina is a layer of tissue in the back of the eye that converts light into nerve impulses.
From sugars to viral invaders to nerve impulses all cellular traffic passes through the cell membrane, and likely interacts with the proteins embedded there, such as neurotransmitter and hormone receptors.
Inside a neuron, these chemical signals are converted to an electrical action potential, which travels along the axon of the neuron until it reaches the end.

resulting in decreased transmission of nerve impulses, and plaque formation. In 2008, Dr. Prat team identified a cell adhesion molecule, called MCAM (Melanoma Cell adhesion molecule),
