Axonal Protection Strategies

Meaning

Axonal Protection Strategies encompass a range of clinical and physiological interventions specifically aimed at preserving the structural integrity and functional health of axons, the long, slender projections of nerve cells. These strategies are essential for maintaining the brain’s white matter integrity and ensuring efficient, high-speed neural communication throughout the central and peripheral nervous systems. The goal is to prevent the degeneration that often precedes significant neurological impairment and cognitive decline.
