By Sally Robertson, BSc. The term demyelination refers to loss of the myelin sheath that surrounds and protects axons in the central nervous system. Demyelination occurs as the result of diseases that damage the myelin sheath or the cells that form it. Diseases that are characterized by this loss of myelin are referred to as demyelinating diseases. The myelin sheath covers and insulates axons, aiding the conduction of electrical signals between nerves.
Diseases resulting from demyelination of the central nervous system (CNS) nerves include: 1  Multiple sclerosis (along with the similar disorders known as Idiopathic Inflammatory Demyelinating Diseases). 2  Tabes Dorsalis.3  Optic Neuritis. 4  Vitamin B12 deficiency. 5  Central Pontine Myelinolysis.6  Devicâs disease.7  Transverse Myelitis.ollowing are the diseases that occur due to demyelination of peripheral nervous system (PNS) nerves: 1  Guillain-Barre barrÃ©, syndrome along With Chronic Inflammatory Demyelinating. 2  Polyneuropathy-Charcot-Marie Tooth. 3  Disease-ANTI mag peripheral. 4  Neuropathy copper.  deficiency
