Question

Demyelinating diseases such as multiple sclerosis disrupt normal neural communication by Odestroying receptors on postsynaptic cells so that neurotransmitters cannot bind normally. creating lesions in the blood-brain barrier that allow toxic substances to enter the brain from the bloodstream. O causing deterioration of the fatty substance that normally coats and insulates axons. diminshing the activity of the sodium-potassium pumps that usually maintain the resting potential of neurons.
