Macrophages and Autoantibodies in Demyelinating Diseases [PDF]
Myelin phagocytosis by macrophages has been an essential feature of demyelinating diseases in the central and peripheral nervous systems, including Guillain–Barré syndrome (GBS), chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy (CIDP), and multiple ...

Advances in Therapeutics Research for Demyelinating Diseases [PDF]
Demyelinating diseases comprise a group of chronic and debilitating neurological disorders, with the destruction of the myelin sheath serving as the core pathological hallmark. The central pathogenesis involves immune-mediated damage to oligodendrocytes (

COVID-19 and the risk of CNS demyelinating diseases: A systematic review [PDF]
BackgroundViral infections are a proposed possible cause of inflammatory central nervous system (CNS) demyelinating diseases, including multiple sclerosis (MS), neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD), and myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein ...

Therapeutic potential of neuromodulation for demyelinating diseases
Neuromodulation represents a cutting edge class of both invasive and non-invasive therapeutic methods which alter the activity of neurons. Currently, several different techniques have been developed - or are currently being investigated – to treat a wide

Demyelinating Diseases: From Molecular Mechanisms to Therapeutic Strategies. [PDF]
Demyelinating diseases are a group of pathologies characterized by the alteration of myelin-that is, the coating that wraps around most of the nerve fibres of the central and peripheral nervous system, whose goal is the improvement of nerve conduction ...

Polycaprolactone/graphene oxide/acellular matrix nanofibrous scaffolds with antioxidant and promyelinating features for the treatment of peripheral demyelinating diseases. [PDF]
Peripheral demyelinating diseases entail damage to axons and Schwann cells in the peripheral nervous system. Because of poor prognosis and lack of a cure, this group of diseases has a global impact. The primary underlying cause of these diseases involves

Nuclear hormone receptors in demyelinating diseases. [PDF]
Demyelination results from the pathological loss of myelin and is a hallmark of many neurodegenerative diseases. Despite the prevalence of demyelinating diseases, there are no disease modifying therapies that prevent the loss of myelin or promote ...

The Role of Visual Evoked Potentials in the Differential Diagnosis of Demyelinating Diseases
Objective: Demyelinating diseases are included in the differential diagnosis of non-specific white matter lesions (NSWMLs), which are incidentally detected by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the brain.
