Significance Myelin sheaths insulate the neuronal axons and speed the transmission of electrical impulses. The demyelination process occurs in many human diseases, including multiple sclerosis (MS).

IL-17A expression by both T cells and non-T cells contribute to HSV-IL-2-induced CNS demyelination
Previously we reported that a recombinant HSV-1 expressing murine IL-2 (HSV-IL-2) causes CNS demyelination in different strains of mice and in a T cell-dependent manner.

Background The dietary consumption of cuprizone – a copper chelator – has long been known to induce demyelination of specific brain structures and is widely used as model of multiple sclerosis.

SUMMARY Demyelination is a hallmark of multiple sclerosis, leukoencephalopathies, cerebral vasculopathies, and several neurodegenerative diseases. The cuprizone mouse model is widely used to simulate demyelination and remyelination occurring in these ...

Osmotic Demyelination Syndrome in Patients Hospitalized with Hyponatremia.
Osmotic Demyelination Syndrome and HyponatremiaThe authors estimated the frequency of occurrence of osmotic demyelination syndrome (ODS) after correction of hyponatremia (i.e., serum sodium

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.

Multiple sclerosis (MS) still maintains increasing prevalence and poor prognosis, while glucagon‐like peptide‐1 receptor (GLP‐1R) agonists show excellent neuroprotective capacities recently. Thus, we aim to evaluate whether the GLP‐1R agonist liraglutide
