Abstract
The physical principle of myelin development is obtained from our previous study by explaining Peter's quadrant mystery: an external applied negative and positive E-field can promote and inhibit the growth of the inner tongue of the myelin sheath, respectively. In this study, this principle is considered as a fundamental hypothesis, named Hypothesis-E, to explain more phenomena about myelin development systematically. Specifically, the g-ratio and the fate of the Schwann cell's differentiation are explained in terms of E-field. Moreover, an experiment is proposed to validate this theory.
