Neurons rely on an internal transport system to move essential proteins, organelles, and nutrients along their lengthy axons. This active process, driven by motor proteins, ensures signals transmit efficiently and cells survive. It benefits neuroscientists researching neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer’s, where transport fails, and patients seeking treatments to restore neural health.
