An Alternative Cuprizone-Induced Demyelination and Remyelination Mouse Model [PDF]
The cuprizone model is a well-established and investigated paradigm to study demyelination and remyelination in rodents. Cuprizone is usually administrated by mixing in the powdered or pelleted rodent chow.

Treadmill Exercise Impact on Brain Electrophysiological and Glial Immunoreactivity in Cuprizone-Treated Rats [PDF]
Background/Objectives: Demyelination occurs to a variable extent in various neurological diseases, such as multiple sclerosis. Physical exercise benefits central neural functions that depend on the brain’s electrophysiological and glial activity.

Quantification and Localisation of New Brain Lipid Synthesis Using Deuterium Oxide and High Resolution Mass Spectrometry. [PDF]
Liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry and mass spectrometry imaging were used in combination with deuterium oxide administration to quantify and localise newly synthesised myelin lipids in the mouse brain. This methodology, used here to show sites of myelin repair, enables the measurement of dynamic lipid synthesis in living systems and ...

Growth Differentiation Factor 11 Is a Circulating Regulator of Oligodendrocyte Differentiation and CNS Myelin Formation and Repair. [PDF]
Systemically administered GDF11 enhances CNS myelin formation and repair across both developmental and disease contexts. GDF11 promotes the differentiation of oligodendrocyte progenitor cells into mature oligodendrocytes, increases myelin sheath thickness in neonatal mice, and accelerates remyelination in both the cuprizone‐induced demyelination model ...

Depletion of Microglia Increases Cortical Oligodendrocyte Density During Remyelination. [PDF]
Cuprizone demyelination induces transient reactive states in deep cortical microglia (MG) through early recovery. Depleting MG in recovery increases the number of deep cortical mature/pre‐myelinating oligodendrocytes. Deep cortical reactive MG reduce oligodendrocyte density after demyelination.

Channel Dysfunction as the Basis for Comorbidities in Multiple Sclerosis and Depression. [PDF]
Ion channel remodelling induced by neuroinflammation in multiple sclerosis alters neuronal excitability and immune signalling, creating shared molecular pathways that link multiple sclerosis pathology to depression and reveal novel pharmacological targets.

Effect of transplanted oligodendrocyte precursor cells derived from inflammatory and non-inflammatory microenvironment on remyelination in a chronic cuprizone model. [PDF]
IntroductionMultiple sclerosis is a chronic demyelinating disease of the central nervous system. Transplantation of oligodendrocyte progenitor cells (OPCs) is a promising approach to enhance remyelination; however, the influence of the OPCs ...

Fasciola hepatica excretory-secretory products attenuate demyelination and reduce neuroinflammation in the Cuprizone -induced multiple sclerosis model. [PDF]
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is characterized by chronic neuroinflammation and progressive demyelination, with current therapies failing to adequately address both processes simultaneously.

Effect of swimming on oligodendrocytic cells and myelin tissue in corpus callosum of rat model of MS induced by Cuprizone [PDF]
Background: Multiple Sclerosis is a myelin destroyer disease, which physical activity can be effective in improving it. Therefore, in the present study, the effect of swimming on oligodendrocytic cells and myelin tissue in rat brain of the Cuprizone ...
