Axon regeneration - Study guides, Class notes & Summaries

In the peripheral nervous system, which cells myelinated axons? Schwann cells Damage to a CNS axon leads to progressive degeneration of the distal axon well as myelin around axon, major presynaptic connections, and major downstream or post synaptic connects Central nervous axons regenerate more poorly that peripheral axons regarding the regeneration of a damaged axon, schwann cells promote growth what is likely source of signals preventing central axon regeneration? oligodendro...

Afferent Towards (towards the spinal cord) Efferent Away From (away from the spinal cord) Which nerves are incapable of regeneration? Neurons in the Central Nervous System (CNS) do not divide and injury causes permanent loss. Which injury to nerves has better outcomes?
