What is the optimal value of the g-ratio for myelinated fibers in the rat CNS? A theoretical approach.
BACKGROUND:The biological process underlying axonal myelination is complex and often prone to injury and disease. The ratio of the inner axonal diameter to the total outer diameter or g-ratio is widely utilized as a functional and structural index of optimal axonal myelination. Based on the speed of...
