Upper motor neurons and lower motor neurons act to carry nerve impulses from the brain out to the muscles in the body. Upper motor neurons supply input to the lower motor neurons. They do this by either synapsing directly to lower motor neurons‚ or by synapsing with a local circuit neuron‚ which then synapses with a lower motor neuron. The upper motor neurons originate in the motor region of the cerebral cortex or brainstem. The neurons from the cerebral cortex are important for planning‚ initiating

Composition and Formation of Myelin Sheath Molecular Neurobiology Myelin may be made by different cell types‚ varies in chemical composition and configuration‚ but performs the same insulating function. Myelin is about 40% water; the dry mass of myelin is about 70 - 85% lipids and about 15 - 30% proteins. Some of the proteins that make up myelin are myelin basic protein (MBP)‚ myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein (MOG)‚ and proteolipid protein (PLP). The primary lipid of myelin is a glycolipid
