A stylized illustration depicts a myelinated neuron interacting with an oligodendrocyte. The neuron, a nerve cell within nervous tissue, shows a soma with dendrites, a long axon, and a bulbous synaptic terminal. The oligodendrocyte, a glial cell, wraps the axon with myelin internodes separated by nodes of Ranvier, forming electrical insulation. In neuroanatomy and neurophysiology, this cellular arrangement in the central nervous system (CNS) enables rapid saltatory conduction of action potentials (APs) and efficient signal transmission across neural circuits.
