New wave-type mechanism of saltatory conduction in myelinated axons and micro-saltatory conduction in C fibres
We present a new wave-type model of saltatory conduction in myelinated axons. Poor conductivity in the neuron cytosol limits electrical current signal velocity according to cable theory, to 1–3 m/s, whereas saltatory conduction occurs with a velocity of 100–300 m/s. We propose a wave-type mechanism...
