Exosome Circuitry During (De)(Re)Myelination of the Central Nervous System

Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2020
Reciprocal neuron–glia cell communication is fundamental for the proper function of the nervous system. Oligodendrocytes are the myelinating cells of the central nervous system (CNS) that insulate and provide trophic support to neurons.

Deciphering Auditory Hyperexcitability in Otogl Mutant Mice Unravels an Auditory Neuropathy Mechanism

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
By investigating auditory hyperexcitability in a mouse model for hereditary deafness, this study identified a subpopulation of afferent neurons of the auditory nerve marked by Otogl expression. Despite their apparently normal hearing, Otogl+/− mice display poor activation of afferent neurons processing loud sounds and an elevation of the middle the ear

Reflective imaging of myelin integrity in the human and mouse central nervous systems

Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience
The structural integrity of myelin sheaths in the central nervous system (CNS) is crucial for the maintenance of its function. Electron microscopy (EM) is the gold standard for visualizing individual myelin sheaths.

Trichothiodystrophy due to ERCC2 Variants: Uncommon Contributor to Progressive Hypomyelinating Leukodystrophy

Molecular Genetics & Genomic Medicine
Background Trichothiodystrophy (TTD) is caused by homozygous or compound heterozygous variants in genes associated with DNA repair. The ERCC2 gene encoded a protein, XPD, that is a subunit of the general transcription factor TFIIH and important in both ...

Effects of Synaptic and Myelin Plasticity on Learning in a Network of Kuramoto Phase Oscillators [PDF]

, 2019
Models of learning typically focus on synaptic plasticity. However, learning is the result of both synaptic and myelin plasticity. Specifically, synaptic changes often co-occur and interact with myelin changes, leading to complex dynamic interactions between these processes.
