Association of CNS demyelination and COVID-19 infection: an updated systematic review
Since the declaration of COVID-19 pandemic, several case reports of demyelination of both peripheral and central nervous systems have been published. The association between CNS demyelination and viral infection has long been documented, and this link ...

Suppression of IL-12p70 formation by IL-2 or following macrophage depletion causes T-cell autoreactivity leading to CNS demyelination in HSV-1-infected mice. [PDF]
We have established two mouse models of central nervous system (CNS) demyelination that differ from most other available models of multiple sclerosis (MS) in that they represent a mixture of viral and immune triggers. In the first model, ocular infection

A number of viruses can initiate central nervous system (CNS) diseases that include demyelination as a major feature of neuropathology. In humans, the most prominent demyelinating diseases are progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy, caused by JC papovirus destruction of oligodendrocytes, and subacute sclerosing panencephalitis, an invariably fatal ...

Demyelination of the Optic Nerve: An Underlying Factor in Glaucoma?
Neurodegenerative disorders are characterized by typical neuronal degeneration and axonal loss in the central nervous system (CNS). Demyelination occurs when myelin or oligodendrocytes experience damage.

Background: Multiple sclerosis (MS) is an autoimmune disease for which bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BM-MSCs) have become one of the most promising tools for treatment.

Multiple sclerosis (MS) is the most common demyelinating disease that attacks the central nervous system. We recently reported that the new antidepressant (R)-ketamine could ameliorate the disease progression in experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis ...

Summary: We previously reported that infection of different mouse strains with a recombinant HSV-1 expressing IL-2 (HSV-IL-2) caused CNS demyelination.

Myelin consists of several layers of tightly compacted membranes that form an insulating sheath around axons. These membranes are highly enriched in cholesterol, which is essential for the myelination process.

Ferroptosis Mediates Cuprizone-Induced Loss of Oligodendrocytes and Demyelination
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic demyelinating disease of the CNS. Cuprizone (CZ), a copper chelator, is widely used to study demyelination and remyelination in the CNS, in the context of MS.

Microglia respond to white matter injury with different populations that prevent macrophage dispersion into spared tissue. Microglia and infiltrating macrophages are thought to orchestrate the central nervous system (CNS) response to injury; however, the
