Any process that modulates the frequency, rate, or extent of a homeostatic process. Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of a multicellular organismal process, the processes pertinent to the function of a multicellular organism above the cellular level; includes the integrated processes of tissues and organs. Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of transmission of a nerve impulse, the sequential electrochemical polarization and depolarization that travels across the membrane of a neuron in response to stimulation. The process by which myelin sheaths are formed and maintained around neurons. Oligodendrocytes in the brain and spinal cord and Schwann cells in the peripheral nervous system wrap axons with compact layers of their plasma membrane. Adjacent myelin segments are separated by a non-myelinated stretch of axon called a node of Ranvier. Any biological process involved in the maintenance of an internal steady-state. The neurological system process by which a signal is transmitted through the nervous system by synaptic transmission and the sequential electrochemical polarization and depolarization that travels across the membrane of a nerve cell (neuron) in response to stimulation. Any process by which the axon of a neuron is insulated, and that insulation maintained, thereby preventing dispersion of the electrical signal. The process whose specific outcome is the progression of nervous tissue over time, from its formation to its mature state. Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of nervous system development, the origin and formation of nervous tissue. Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of a biological process. Biological processes are regulated by many means; examples include the control of gene expression, protein modification or interaction with a protein or substrate molecule. Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of development, the biological process whose specific outcome is the progression of a multicellular organism over time from an initial condition (e.g. a zygote, or a young adult) to a later condition (e.g. a multicellular animal or an aged adult). Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of the formation of a myelin sheath around nerve axons. Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of a neurophysiological process, an organ system process carried out by any of the organs or tissues of neurological system. Any process that stops, prevents or reduces the frequency, rate or extent of the formation of a myelin sheath around nerve axons. Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of the formation of a myelin sheath around nerve axons. Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of cell communication. Cell communication is the process that mediates interactions between a cell and its surroundings. Encompasses interactions such as signaling or attachment between one cell and another cell, between a cell and an extracellular matrix, or between a cell and any other aspect of its environment.
