Chromatin remodeling in oligodendrogenesis by E. V. Antontseva, N. P. Bondar

“…Thanks to myelin, the speed of electrical-signal conduction increases several hundred-fold because myelin serves as a kind of electrical insulator of nerve f ibers and allows for quick saltatory conduction of action potentials through Ranvier nodes, which are devoid of myelin. …”

Bioaugmented design and functional evaluation of low damage implantable array electrodes by Ling Wang, Chenrui Zhang, Zhiyan Hao, Siqi Yao, Luge Bai, Joaquim Miguel Oliveira, Pan Wang, Kun Zhang, Chen Zhang, Jiankang He, Rui L. Reis, Dichen Li

“…Long-term animal experiments showed that the bio-array electrodes could consistently record 2.5 times more signals than those of the metal array electrodes, and the signal-to-noise ratio based on action potentials was 2.1 times higher. The study investigated the mechanisms of suppressing the scarring effect by the bioaugmented design, revealing reduces brain damage as a result of the interface biocompatibility between the bio-array electrodes and brain tissue, and confirmed the long-term in vivo stability of the bio-array electrodes.…”
