paranode region of axon

Definition

Target type: cellularcomponent

An axon part that is located adjacent to the nodes of Ranvier and surrounded by lateral loop portions of myelin sheath. [GOC:mah, GOC:mh, NIF_Subcellular:sao936144858]

The paranode region of an axon is a specialized area located at the junction between the myelin sheath and the axonal membrane. It plays a crucial role in maintaining the integrity of the myelin sheath and facilitating efficient saltatory conduction of nerve impulses. This region is characterized by a distinct cellular composition, encompassing several important structures:

* **Myelinating Glia:** In the central nervous system (CNS), oligodendrocytes are responsible for wrapping axons in myelin, forming the myelin sheath. In the peripheral nervous system (PNS), Schwann cells perform the same function. These glial cells contribute significantly to the paranode region, extending their plasma membrane to form the compact myelin sheath.
* **Axonal Membrane:** The axon itself contributes to the paranode region by providing the membrane that interacts with the myelin sheath. This membrane contains specialized proteins and ion channels crucial for signal transduction and maintaining the electrical properties of the axon.
* **Paranodal Junctions:** This is a critical interface between the myelin sheath and the axonal membrane. It is characterized by a unique arrangement of proteins and adhesion molecules that stabilize the myelin-axon interaction. The paranodal junctions are essential for maintaining the structural integrity of the myelin sheath and preventing its detachment from the axon.
* **Juxtaparanodal Region:** This region lies immediately adjacent to the paranodal junctions and contains specialized voltage-gated potassium channels (Kv1 channels) that play a vital role in regulating the electrical activity of the axon. These channels contribute to the rapid repolarization of the action potential during saltatory conduction.
* **Caspr2/Contactin Associated Protein-2:** This transmembrane protein is a key component of the paranodal junctions. It interacts with the axonal membrane and plays a crucial role in stabilizing the myelin-axon interaction.
* **Caspr/Contactin Associated Protein:** This protein also plays a role in stabilizing the paranodal junctions and contributes to the proper formation and maintenance of the myelin sheath.
* **Neurofascin 155:** This protein is localized to the axonal membrane and interacts with Caspr2, helping to maintain the integrity of the paranodal junctions.
* **Nf186/Neurofascin 186:** This protein is found at the outer edge of the myelin sheath and contributes to the formation of the paranodal junctions.
* **Myelin-Associated Glycoprotein (MAG):** This protein is present in the myelin sheath and interacts with the axonal membrane, contributing to the adhesion between the myelin and the axon.
* **Extracellular Matrix (ECM):** The paranode region is also surrounded by an ECM, which contains various proteins and glycoproteins that provide structural support and help maintain the integrity of the region.

The precise arrangement and interaction of these cellular components contribute to the unique properties and functions of the paranode region. This region plays a crucial role in maintaining the structural and functional integrity of the myelin sheath, ensuring efficient saltatory conduction of nerve impulses. Any disruption or alteration in the paranodal region can lead to various neurological disorders, highlighting the importance of its proper formation and maintenance.'
