Genetics of Demyelinating Diseases

open access: yesBrain Pathology, 1996
Multiple sclerosis(MS), the prototypic demyelinating disease in humans, is the most common cause of acquired neurological dysfunction arising between early to mid adulthood. MS is an inflammatory disorder and is believed to result from an autoimmune response, directed against myelin proteins and perhaps other antigens, resulting in demyelination and ...

Engineering the Future of Restorative Clinical Peripheral Nerve Surgery

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
What if damaged nerves could regenerate more effectively? This review unveils cutting‐edge strategies to restore nerve function, from biomaterial scaffolds and bioactive molecules to living engineered tissues. By accelerating axonal regrowth, preserving Schwann cells, and enhancing connectivity, these approaches are reshaping nerve repair—offering new ...

Mechanisms of remyelination: recent insight from experimental models

open access: yesBiomolecular Concepts, 2014
Oligodendrocytes and myelin play essential roles in the vertebrate central nervous system. Demyelination disrupts saltatory nerve conduction, leading to axonal degeneration and neurological disabilities.

Self-supervised Lesion Change Detection and Localisation in Longitudinal Multiple Sclerosis Brain Imaging [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2021
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.

High Fat Low Carbohydrate Diet Is Linked to CNS Autoimmunity Protection

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Mapping global epidemiological data to macronutrient supply reveals high carbohydrate, in contrast to high fat supply, associates with increased multiple sclerosis (MS) prevalence and incidence. This is confirmed in a mouse MS model, experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE), using isocaloric diets: a high carbohydrate diet aggravates, a high ...

Dynamic induction of the myelin‐associated growth inhibitor Nogo‐A in perilesional plasticity regions after human spinal cord injury

open access: yesBrain Pathology, Volume 33, Issue 1, January 2023., 2023
Nogo‐A oligodendrocytes expression emerges at perilesional regions over time and suggests an extended therapeutical window for anti‐Nogo‐A pathway trageting interventrions beyond four weeks in patients after spinal cord injury. Abstract The myelin‐associated inhibitor Nogo‐A (Reticulon 4, RTN4) restricts axonal outgrowth, plasticity, and neural ...

Computational Reproducibility in Metabolite Quantification Applied to Short Echo Time in Vivo MR Spectroscopy [PDF]

open access: yesIEEE International Symposium on Biomedical Imaging, Apr 2023, Cartagena de Indias, France, 2023
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 ...

CXCL13 Damages Blood Spinal Cord Barrier by Promoting RNF6/Sqstm1‐Ubiquitination Induced Autophagy in Experimental Allergic Encephalomyelitis

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
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 ...

Optical coherent tomography capabilities in the diagnosis of demyelinating diseases of the central nervous system

open access: yesАнналы клинической и экспериментальной неврологии, 2018
Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is a non-invasive technique routinely used for obtaining in vivo transverse images of tissues. In the field of neurology, OCT is used to assess retinal changes in various diseases, including multiple sclerosis ...
