Elucidating Axonal Injuries Through Molecular Modelling of Myelin Sheaths and Nodes of Ranvier

Around half of the traumatic brain injuries are thought to be axonal damage. Disruption of the cellular membranes, or alternatively cytoskeletal damage has been suggested as possible injury trigger. Here, we have used molecular models to have a better insight on the structural and mechanical propert...
