Axoplasmic Transport in Physiology and Pathology

Cajal and contemporary scientists have laid the basis of the modem concepts of the organization of the nervous system: the cir­ cuits of the brain are made up of individual neurons which transfer information via specialized structures called synapses. Soma and den­ drites usually receive the inputs, then the signal is carried all along the axon to the target areas. To fulfIll this task several typ...
