Lipid-Protein and Lipid-Lipid Interactions in the Myelin Sheath [PDF]
Biophysical Journal, 2011 The myelin sheath, which is produced by oligodendrocytes in the central nervous system (CNS), enwraps the axons to provide fast conduction of the action potential and to ensure axonal integrity. For the myelin membrane, the most abundant lipids are cholesterol and galactolipids such as galactosylceramide (GalC) and sulfatide(SGC).

Lipids and Alzheimer’s Disease
International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2020 Lipids, as the basic component of cell membranes, play an important role in human health as well as brain function. The brain is highly enriched in lipids, and disruption of lipid homeostasis is related to neurologic disorders as well as ...

Dietary lipids, gut microbiota and lipid metabolism
Reviews in Endocrine & Metabolic Disorders, 2019 The gut microbiota is a central regulator of host metabolism. The composition and function of the gut microbiota is dynamic and affected by diet properties such as the amount and composition of lipids.

Myelin Fat Facts: An Overview of Lipids and Fatty Acid Metabolism
Cells, 2020 Myelin is critical for the proper function of the nervous system and one of the most complex cell–cell interactions of the body. Myelination allows for the rapid conduction of action potentials along axonal fibers and provides physical and trophic ...
