Background: Anti-N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor (NMDAR) immunoglobulin G antibodies which exist on myelin sheaths, composed of oligodendrocytes, especially target GluN1 subunits and are highly characteristic of anti-NMDAR encephalitis which is a newly ...

In multiple sclerosis, the disruption of the blood‐spinal cord barrier (BSCB) induced by CXCL13 facilitates the infiltration of inflammatory cells into the central nervous system, resulting in demyelination and neuronal injury. Mechanistically, the deleterious impact of CXCL13 on the BSCB is associated with a reduction in tight junction protein ...

Mechanisms of remyelination: recent insight from experimental models
Oligodendrocytes and myelin play essential roles in the vertebrate central nervous system. Demyelination disrupts saltatory nerve conduction, leading to axonal degeneration and neurological disabilities.

Inflammatory demyelinating CNS syndromes include, besides their most common entity multiple sclerosis (MS), several different diseases of either monophasic or recurrent character—including neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorders (NMOSDs) and acute ...

Self-supervised Lesion Change Detection and Localisation in Longitudinal Multiple Sclerosis Brain Imaging [PDF]
Longitudinal imaging forms an essential component in the management and follow-up of many medical conditions. The presence of lesion changes on serial imaging can have significant impact on clinical decision making, highlighting the important role for automated change detection.

Objectives Rapid advances in transcriptomics have driven efforts to identify deregulated pathways in multiple sclerosis (MS) tissues, though many detected differentially expressed genes are likely false positives, with only a small fraction reflecting actual pathological events. Robust, integrative methods are essential for accurately understanding the

Imaging Microglial/Macrophage Activation in Spinal Cords of Experimental Autoimmune Encephalomyelitis Rats by Positron Emission Tomography Using the Mitochondrial 18kDa Translocator Protein Radioligand [18F]DPA-714 [PDF]
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is an inflammatory demyelinating disease of the CNS. Activated microglia/macrophages play a key role in the immunopathogenesis of MS and its corresponding animal models, experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE).

Computational Reproducibility in Metabolite Quantification Applied to Short Echo Time in Vivo MR Spectroscopy [PDF]
In vivo metabolite quantification by short echo time MR spectroscopy is a challenge for which various methods have been proposed. In this study, the reproducibility of quantification outcomes is questioned at three distinct levels: (i) between-software (LCModel and cQUEST), (ii) withinsoftware (with different parameter sets), and (iii) across software ...

Oligodendrogenesis in Evolution, Development and Adulthood
Oligodendrocytes and myelin took shape in jawed vertebrates. During development, OPCs are originated from NSCs and then undergo differentiation into mature oligodendrocytes that supply myelin. OPCs persist in the adult CNS and continue to produce oligodendrocytes and myelin. Adaptive myelination, which fine‐tunes neural circuits in response to neuronal
