Pharmacological Myelin Enhancement

Meaning

Pharmacological Myelin Enhancement refers to the clinical use of specific drug compounds or bio-identical agents designed to actively promote the generation, repair, or stabilization of the myelin sheath surrounding nerve axons in the central nervous system. This targeted approach is distinct from general neuroprotection, focusing specifically on the white matter structure to restore or improve the speed and efficiency of neural conduction. It is a therapeutic strategy for addressing age-related cognitive slowing and demyelinating disorders.
