Oligodendrogenesis in Evolution, Development and Adulthood

open access: yesGlia, EarlyView.
Oligodendrocytes and myelin took shape in jawed vertebrates. During development, OPCs are originated from NSCs and then undergo differentiation into mature oligodendrocytes that supply myelin. OPCs persist in the adult CNS and continue to produce oligodendrocytes and myelin. Adaptive myelination, which fine‐tunes neural circuits in response to neuronal

Myelin Lipid Composition in the Central Nervous System Is Regionally Distinct and Requires Mechanistic Target of Rapamycin Signaling

open access: yesGlia, EarlyView.
Brain oligodendrocytes have lower rates of cholesterol synthesis and higher rates of lipoprotein uptake than spinal cord oligodendrocytes. Myelin lipid content is higher in CNS regions with larger average axon diameter. Brain and spinal cord myelin cholesterol content is innately different, while myelin fatty acid content can be modulated by fiber ...

What Does Iron Mean to an Oligodendrocyte?

open access: yesGlia, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Iron is essential for life and plays a key role in multiple fundamental cellular functions. The brain has the highest rate of energy consumption, and within the brain, oligodendrocytes have the highest level of oxidative metabolism per volume. Oligodendrocytes also stain the strongest for iron.

Pathways to Progressive Disability in Multiple Sclerosis: The Role of Glial Cells in Chronic CNS Inflammation

open access: yesGlia, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Multiple sclerosis (MS) is the most common non‐infectious inflammatory CNS disease, characterized by progressive neurodegeneration and focal demyelinated lesions. Traditionally considered an autoimmune disease, MS is driven by the immune system's attack on CNS myelin, resulting in cumulative disability.

Impaired Volume Regulation and Electrophysiology of Astrocytes In Situ in a Mouse Model for Megalencephalic Leukoencephalopathy With Subcortical Cysts

open access: yesGlia, EarlyView.
Cell culture studies show disrupted astrocyte physiology in the leukodystrophy MLC. Are intact astrocytes similarly affected? This study on astrocytes in MLC mouse brain slices confirms and extends in vitro studies on altered astrocyte physiology. ABSTRACT Electrical signaling, driven by ion fluxes between intra‐ and extracellular compartments, is ...

Breakable Nanomaterials to Allow Hair Coloring with Natural Dyes

open access: yesHelvetica Chimica Acta, EarlyView.
Abstract The use of melanin as a colorant has been significantly limited by its low solubility and the difficulty of penetrating the hair shaft or follicles. However, the proposed nanotechnological approach demonstrates that it is possible to encapsulate a melanin precursor, 5,6‐dihydroxyindole (DHI), within breakable particles and trigger its ...

A case report: Diagnosis and treatment of idiopathic hypertrophic pachymeningitis

open access: yesIbrain, Volume 11, Issue 1, Page 112-116, Spring 2025.
We reported a case of idiopathic hypertrophic dura meningitis diagnosed in our hospital. The patient repeatedly suffered from headaches, followed by blurred vision in the right eye. During this period, multiple sclerosis was considered for diagnosis, and it improved after hormone treatment.
