Internalization of Exogenous Myelin by Oligodendroglia Promotes Lineage Progression

Glia, Volume 74, Issue 3, March 2026.
Oligodendroglia internalize extracellular myelin debris in vitro and in vivo. Internalized myelin modulates lipid metabolism and lipid droplet formation. Myelin‐derived signals promote oligodendroglial proliferation and lineage progression. ABSTRACT Oligodendrocytes, traditionally recognized for their role in central nervous system myelination, have ...

Modulation of Cytokines and Immune Cells by Plasma Exchange in Patients With Certain Autoimmune Neurological Diseases

Immunity, Inflammation and Disease, Volume 14, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Objective Therapeutic plasma exchange (TPE) plays a crucial role in the management of autoimmune neurological disorders, although its effects on cytokines and immune cells are not fully understood. This study aimed to investigate the impact of TPE on immune cell subsets, cytokine levels, and immunoglobulins. Methods A total of 85 patients with

Hydroxycitric acid ameliorates inflammation and oxidative stress in mouse models of multiple sclerosis

Neural Regeneration Research, 2016
Hydroxycitric acid (HCA) is derived primarily from the Garcinia plant and is widely used for its anti-inflammatory effects. Multiple sclerosis can cause an inflammatory demyelination and axonal damage.

Chondroitin Sulfate Proteoglycans in CNS Development and Pathophysiology

Journal of Neuroscience Research, Volume 104, Issue 3, March 2026.
Chondroitin sulfate proteoglycans (CSPGs) are critical components of the extracellular matrix in the central nervous system (CNS). In the developing CNS, CSPGs regulate neural precursor cells, neuronal migration, axon guidance, synapse organization, and peri‐neuronal net assembly.

The NLRP3 Inflammasome: Mechanisms of Activation, Regulation, and Therapeutic Opportunities

MedComm, Volume 7, Issue 3, March 2026.
Diverse diseases converge on NLRP3. We depict a discovery‐to‐clinic track: high‐throughput/phenotypic screens, structure‐guided design, and modality innovation (allosteric inhibitors, interface blockers, degraders) deliver third‐generation, disease‐tailored NLRP3 control.

Isoprenoids determine Th1/Th2 fate in pathogenic T cells, providing a mechanism of modulation of autoimmunity by atorvastatin. [PDF]

, 2006
3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-coenzyme A (HMG-CoA) reductase is a critical enzyme in the mevalonate pathway that regulates the biosynthesis of cholesterol as well as isoprenoids that mediate the membrane association of certain GTPases.

Regulatory B cells in the central nervous system: From immune regulation to neuroprotection

Neuroprotection, Volume 4, Issue 1, Page 4-13, March 2026.
Neuroinflammatory mechanisms and the therapeutic potential of regulatory B cells (Bregs). Following brain Injury (left panel) blood–brain barrier disruption facilitates the infiltration of peripheral leukocytes, including effector B cells (Beff) and effector T cells (Teff). This process triggers the activation of macrophages, astrocytes, and microglia,
