A stylized diagram of a multipolar neuron showing the soma with nucleus and Nissl bodies, extensive dendrites, and a long axon with discontinuous myelin sheath segments, some of which are thinned or disrupted. As a nerve cell within neural tissue (cell-to-tissue hierarchy), it belongs to neuroanatomy and neurophysiology and functions to propagate APs (action potentials) via saltatory conduction along myelinated axon segments. Focal demyelination exposes axolemma between nodes, which reduces conduction velocity and signal fidelity.
