Question
What are the cells that produce the myelin sheath? Of which substance is the myelin sheath formed?
Answers
In the central nervous system (CNS) the myelin sheath is made by apposition of oligodendrocyte membranes. Each oligodendrocyte can cover portions of axons of several different neurons. In the peripheral nervous system (PNS) the myelin sheath is made by consecutive Schwann cell membranes covering segments of a single axon. The Ranviers’ nodes appear in the intercellular space between these cells. The myelin sheath is rich in lipids but it also contains proteins.   Your Comment
