demyelination[dē‚mī·ə·lə′nā·shən] (pathology) Destruction of myelin; loss of myelin from nerve sheaths or nerve tracts. demyelinationenUK
demyelination [de-mi´ĕ-lin-a´shun] destruction, removal, or loss of the myelin sheath of a nerve or nerves. Called also demyelinization and myelinolysis.de·my·e·li·na·tion , demyelinization (dē-mī'e-lin-ā'shŭn, dē-mī'ĕ-lin-i-za'shŭn), Loss of myelin with preservation of the axons or fiber tracts. Central demyelination occurs within the central nervous system (for example, the demyelination seen with multiple sclerosis); peripheral demyelination affects the peripheral nervous system (for example, the demyelination seen with Guillain-Barré syndrome).demyelination Demyelinization Neurology A condition in which nerve trunks are not myelinated ab initio–eg, leukodystrophy or which suffer loss after myelinization has been completed–eg, myelinoclasia. See Leukodystrophy. de·my·e·li·na·tion , demyelinization (dē-mī'e-lin-ā'shŭn, -ī-zā'shŭn) Loss of myelin with preservation of the axons or fiber tracts. Central demyelination occurs within the central nervous system (e.g., the demyelination seen with multiple sclerosis); peripheral demyelination affects the peripheral nervous system (e.g., the demyelination seen with Guillain-Barré syndrome). demyelination Loss of the insulating fatty sheath (myelin) of nerve fibres. This usually occurs in a patchy manner. Local areas of demyelination, in the form of ‘plaques’ which extend across large numbers of nerve fibre bundles, is the hallmark of MULTIPLE SCLEROSIS. Also known as demyelinization.DemyelinationDisruption or destruction of the myelin sheath, leaving a bare nerve. Results in a slowing or stopping of impulses traveling along that nerve.Mentioned in: Guillain-Barré Syndromede·my·e·li·na·tion , demyelinization (dē-mī'e-lin-ā'shŭn, -ī-zā'shŭn, dē-mīĕ-li-nāshŭn, -lin-ī-zāshŭn) Loss of myelin with preservation of the axons or fiber tracts.demyelinationenUK
