Myelin, which is composed of Schwann cells, is an insulating layer that surrounds portions of the brain's axons. A protective covering known as myelin is produced by Schwann cells in the peripheral nervous system.
<h3>
What does myelin mean?</h3>
A protective layer or sheath called myelin develops around nerves, including those in the brain and spinal cord. It is composed of fatty and protein components. Electrical impulses may move swiftly and effectively along nerve cells because to its myelin layer.
Schwann cells make myelin in the peripheral nervous system (PNS: nerves) and oligodendrocytes in the central nervous system (CNS: brain and spinal cord). In the PNS, one Schwann cell forms a single myelin sheath
