Distributional invariance and proportional scaling in axonal conduction
Abstract
, follows a right-skewed distribution whose shape remains invariant across branch lengths, positions within neurons, and hierarchical aggregation levels. Local conduction profiles reveal a predominantly progressive deceleration along branches. These observations indicate a simple and robust statistical organization of slowdown, suggesting that proportional modulation of propagation speed is a consistent feature of axonal signaling in structurally variable substrates.
