| myelin |
a fatty covering insulating nerve cell fibers in the brain and spinal cord, myelin facilitates the smooth, high-speed transmission of electrochemical messages between these components of the central nervous system and the rest of the body. In MS, myelin is damaged through a process known as demyelination, which results in distorted or blocked signals.

| myelin |
the electrically insulating coating around axons that gives white matter its whitish appearance. Myelin increases the speed and reliability of signal transmission along nerve fibers. In the CNS, oligodendrocytes, a type of glial cell, wrap myelin around axons. In the PNS, Schwann cells generate myelin.

A major myelin protein of the mammalian CNS. Upon injection into guinea pigs, rabbits, or rats, it induces allergic autoimmune encephalomyelitis, an inflammation of the brain & spinal column. The protein is rich in basic aminoacids
