What are the Consequences of Axoplasmic Flow Stasis?
The consequences of axoplasmic flow stasis are severe and can lead to a range of neurodegenerative conditions. The inability to transport essential molecules can trigger apoptosis or programmed cell death. This disruption is often seen in diseases like Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) and Huntington's disease, where axonal transport defects contribute to the progression of the disease.
