Unexpected Remyelination in the Absence of Matrix Metalloproteinase 7
MMP7 is not essential for demyelination and remyelination in the cuprizone model. In MMP7−/− mice fibronectin aggregates do not accumulate in the remyelination phase. MMP7−/− mice have lower levels of fibronectin and hyaluronan after chronic demyelination.

Abstract Background and purpose Upper limb (UL) function is often affected in people with multiple sclerosis (PwMS) and is typically assessed through objective measures, including the Nine Hole Peg Test (9‐HPT), Box and Block Test (BBT), and Hand Grip Strength (HGS). It is important to include the subjective perspective of PwMS in the assessment.

Guillain-Barré syndrome: a century of progress [PDF]
In 1916, Guillain, Barré and Strohl reported on two cases of acute flaccid paralysis with high cerebrospinal fluid protein levels and normal cell counts — novel findings that identified the disease we now know as Guillain–Barré syndrome (GBS).

Ablation of autophagy in oligodendrocytes reveals increased PLP expression, myelin abnormalities, axon degeneration, and increased microglia activation in aged mice. The aged mice exhibit marked deficits in learning and memory tasks. ABSTRACT The aging central nervous system (CNS) is often marked by myelin degeneration, yet the underlying mechanisms ...

Diagnosis and treatment of progressive multiple sclerosis: A position paper
Abstract Background and Purpose Multiple sclerosis (MS) is an unpredictable disease characterised by a highly variable disease onset and clinical course. Three main clinical phenotypes have been described. However, distinguishing between the two progressive forms of MS can be challenging for clinicians.

Investigating the role of SARM1 in central nervous system
Sterile‐α and Toll/interleukin 1 receptor (TIR) motif‐containing protein 1 (SARM1) is a pivotal molecule that has garnered extensive attention in neuroscience. As an intracellular molecule, SARM1 possesses various crucial biological functions in the nervous system.
