- The long axon tails of these ganglions braid together to form the ropey optic nerve, which is what carries the neural impulses from the eyeball to the brain.

- If that hits the right threshold, it activates the electrical event that sends the signal all the way up the axon and gets one neuron talking to another: the action potential.
If that hits the right threshold, it activates the electrical event that sends the signal all the way up the axon and gets one neuron talking to another: the action potential.
- When that action potential races down the length of its axon to the terminal, the message hits the synapse that then flings it over that synaptic gap to another neuron that's in your spinal cord.

The Structural Basis of Ebola Viral Pathogenesis
- So the axon nucleus you talked about, one would envision that it might actually do harm to the replication of the virus too if it gets activated in opportune time.
So the axon nucleus you talked about, one would envision that it might actually do harm to the replication of the virus too if it gets activated in opportune time.
- So is there a timing in terms of when this viral-encoded axon nucleus gets activated during the lifecycle of the virus so that it allows it to evade immune detection but does not hurt its own production?
