Adhesion Process of Biomimetic Myelin Membranes Triggered by Myelin Basic Protein

Adhesion Process of Biomimetic Myelin Membranes Triggered by Myelin Basic Protein

The myelin sheath—a multi-double-bilayer membrane wrapped around axons—is an essential part of the nervous system which enables rapid signal conduction. Damage of this complex membrane system results in demyelinating diseases such as multiple sclerosis (MS). The process in which myelin is generated...
