    body temperature‚ receptors‚ normally nerve endings‚ in the dermis encounter the change‚ then sends an impulse to the hypothalamus‚ the control centre in the brain. An impulse is then sent to the effectors in the skin and will respond in either increasing or decreasing temperature; this would depend on the change. Responses are carried out by the structure in the dermis. When temperature goes back to its set point the hypothalamus then stops sending impulses to the effectors. This process is the

    Krabbe disease is a disorder inherited from parents‚ which destroys the myelin coat of nerve cells throughout the nervous system and the process is called demyelination. Demyelination inhibits the transmission of nerve impulses and that hinders the communication of the brain and the body and that results in disability (Mayo Foundation for Medical Education and Research‚ 2016). Dr. Knud. H.Krabbe diagnosed this disorder in 1916 (Arizona Board of Regents‚ 2015). Krabbe disease is a body recessive disorder

The virus codes for 3 immediate-early (IE) proteins that also play a role in regulating viral transcription by inhibiting the activity of interferon-alpha (Cohen‚ 2010). These immediate early regulatory proteins are encoded by alpha genes and help regulate beta genes‚ are present in open reading frames 4‚ 61‚ 62 and 63 (Ancton‚ 2012).

    the myelin sheath. A many-layered white‚ lipid and protein covering produced by the neuroglia that is called the myelin sheath surround the axons of most neurons. The sheath electrically insulates the axon of a neuron and increases the speed of nerve impulse conduction. Axons with such a covering are said to be myelinated whereas those without it are said to be unmyelinated. Two types of neuroglia produce myelin sheaths: neurolemmocytes and oligodendrocytes. In the PNS‚ neurolemmocytes form myelin
