ranvier's nodes

Preferred Label : ranvier's nodes;

MeSH definition : Regularly spaced gaps in the myelin sheaths of peripheral axons. Ranvier's nodes allow saltatory conduction, that is, jumping of impulses from node to node, which is faster and more energetically favorable than continuous conduction.;

MeSH synonym : nodes of ranvier; nodes, ranvier's; ranviers nodes; ranvier nodes;

CISMeF synonym : Ranvier;

MeSH annotation : regular gaps in myelin sheath; A 11 qualif except /cytol; /genet permitted;
