Axons are nerve fibres that typically conduct electrical impulses
away from the neuron's cell body. The function of the axon is to
transmit information to different neurons, muscles and glands. In
this book, the authors discuss the cell biology, molecular dynamics
and role in neural repair and rehabilitation of axons. Topics
include the traumatic retraction of living neural processes and
their inhibitions; water translocation from the axoplasm into the
glioplasm during reactive reorganisation of myelinated nerve
fibres; problems and mechanisms in axonal afterdischarges; the
putative role of axon cytoskeleton protein in MS repair;
microtubules as a potential therapeutic target for the treatment of
neurodegenerative diseases; morphometrical and molecular biological
analyses of facial nerves in healthy adults and patients with
facial nerve palsy; intrinsic axon growth potential; and sensory
axonal guidance by chemorepulsive and chemoattractive cues in
higher vertebrates.
