Researchers
in the United Kingdom recently discovered that a small molecule
triggers the destruction of axons, a phenomenon observed in neurodegenerative
diseases like multiple sclerosis (MS). The study is titled “Wallerian
Degeneration Is Executed by an NMN-SARM1-Dependent Late Ca2+ Influx but Only
Modestly Influenced by Mitochondria” and appears in the journal Cell
Reports. Neurons communicate and transmit electrical signals […]
