Modelling and Characterization of Glial Fibrillary Acidic Protein [PDF]
Glial Fibrillary Acidic Protein (GFAP) is an intermediate-filament (IF) protein that maintains the astrocytes of the Central Nervous System in Human. This is differentially expressed during serological studies in inflamed condition such as Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA).

Müller glia activation in response to inherited retinal degeneration is highly varied and disease-specific [PDF]
Despite different aetiologies, most inherited retinal disorders culminate in photoreceptor loss, which induces concomitant changes in the neural retina, one of the most striking being reactive gliosis by Müller cells.

Glial heterotopia of maxilla: A clinical surprise
Glial heterotopia is a rare congenital mass lesion which often presents as a clinical surprise. We report a case of extranasal glial heterotopia in a neonate with unusual features.

Olig2/Plp-positive progenitor cells give rise to Bergmann glia in the cerebellum. [PDF]
NG2 (nerve/glial antigen2)-expressing cells represent the largest population of postnatal progenitors in the central nervous system and have been classified as oligodendroglial progenitor cells, but the fate and function of these cells remain ...

Glial Protein Mutations in Alexander Disease
The role of glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) mutations in Alexander disease was analyzed in 44 patients, including 18 with later onset, at the University of Alabama, Birmingham, AL, and at other centers in the US, UK and Europe.

Abnormal motoneuron migration, differentiation, and axon outgrowth in spinal muscular atrophy [PDF]
The role of heterotopic (migratory) motoneurons (HMN) in the pathogenesis of spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) is still controversial. We examined the occurrence and amount of HMN in spinal cord tissue from eight children with SMA (six with SMA-I and two ...

Glial Fibrillary Acidic Protein-Expressing Glia in the Mouse Lung
Autonomic nerves regulate important functions in visceral organs, including the lung. The postganglionic portion of these nerves is ensheathed by glial cells known as non-myelinating Schwann cells.

Induced CNS expression of CXCL1 augments neurologic disease in a murine model of multiple sclerosis via enhanced neutrophil recruitment. [PDF]
Increasing evidence points to an important role for neutrophils in participating in the pathogenesis of the human demyelinating disease MS and the animal model EAE.

Evidence that an RGD-dependent receptor mediates the binding of oligodendrocytes to a novel ligand in a glial-derived matrix. [PDF]
A simple adhesion assay was used to measure the interaction between rat oligodendrocytes and various substrata, including a matrix secreted by glial cells. Oligodendrocytes bound to surfaces coated with fibronectin, vitronectin and a protein component of
