Fill in the blank: A bundle of myelinated axons in the CNS is called a(n) ___. Myelinated Axons: Axons are long, thin projections of a neuron that function to carry nerve impulses (action potentials) to neighbouring neurons. When portions of the axon are wrapped in ...
Olfactory ensheathing cells (OEC), which normally associate closely with but do not myelinate axons in situ, myelinate axons in the adult mammalian spinal cord. They are of clinical interest as candidate cells for autologous transplantation but the ability of OEC to myelinate axons in vitro has...
Fill in the blank: A bundle of myelinated axons in the CNS is called a(n) ___. What separates the two cerebral hemispheres? The portion of the brain that allows the two hemispheres of the cerebrum to communicate with each other is called {Blank}....
The medial forebrain bundle—a white matter pathway projecting from the ventral tegmental area—is a structure that has been under a lot of scrutinies recently due to its implications in the modulation of certain affective disorders such as major depression. In the following, we will discuss major...

in limbic-related structures innervated by both dorsal and ventral bundles, as well as elevated binding in the striatum. However, following abstinence from responding for cocaine binding to α2-adrenoceptors was not different than in control animals. These data demonstrate the dynamic nature of the...
