What is Neuronal Degeneration?
I will start with one area of the neuron because I have to start somewhere to explain what I am talking about when I say, “what is neuronal degeneration?”
Myelin sheath is the spiral wrapping around axons that help speed and insulate the nerve impulses. Most neurons have just one main axon or pathway for sending neurite or called an “axonal processes” or nerve fibre; it is much longer and thicker than the dendrite.
Each neuron has it’s own immensely complex highly individualized shape, sets of connections via synapses to other neurons. Its links are shaped by history and how it’s used over it’s life time as some of it’s connections weaken and fade while other parts regenerate and strengthen. This uniqueness of neuronal regeneration make any degeneration or damage very serious. The neuron is likely to be unable to form their pathologies via extension and to any links. Even on regrowth they “feel” their way to nerve cells, according to nerve signals being received or sent.
Synapses are communication sites where neurons pass nerve impulses along themselves. The cells are separated by an incredibly thin gap called the synapse cleft. Micro anatomically synapses are divided into types of according to the types of sites where neurons almost touch. These sites the “soma” the dendrites, the axons, and tiny narrow projections called “dendrite spines” called Axospinodendrites synapses form 50% of the synapses in the brain, axodendrite synapses are about 30%.
If the endoplasmic reticulum, which are sheets of membranes that are folded and stacked into piles and studded with tiny spherical ribosomes, and the mitochondria cellular power station that splits apart the sugars and fat molecules to release energy, and the ATP’s are depleting, and the energy is damaged and the smooth reticulum endoplasmic tube layers that help transport and store materials are damaged and the nuclei DNA is damaged from the ACE 2 entry, via tunnelling, and this instructs the cell how to function and develop in regeneration, and this is all damaged, and the myelin sheath is degenerating as told in some of the research, it is highly likely your neuronal regeneration is going to be highly ineffective for functioning. Your neuronal degeneration is going to effect the functioning of organ cells through out the body on many levels.
The cell body, itself, the myelin sheath, the degeneration of fibre terminals and axons, and mitochondria pathologies, with empty myelin sheath sections missing will not support regeneration of cell regrowth, function for organs to work on many levels.
Just as an add on,…. this would include the carbon bonds weakening….
Can you see?
