Although it is well known that the central nervous system (CNS) and the peripheral nervous system (PNS), and in particular their myelin, contain large quantities of cholesterol, the specific role of this lipid in the structure and function of the nervous system remains elusive. In this review, we will summarize progress in our understanding of the role

Immunological Responses to Myelin and Myelin Components [PDF]
, 1977 The majority of the data available on the immunology of central nervous system (CNS) myelin relate to the specificity of myelin, and in particular its basic protein component, in bringing about the clinical signs and histopathologically defined lesions characteristic of experimental allergic encephalomyelitis (EAE) via a primarily cell-mediated ...

Although it was initially thought to be a passive structure, the oligodendrocyte and myelin unit is now considered highly dynamic with many important functions beyond its role in myelination. Inhibitors of neurite growth can be localized to oligodendrocyte and myelin, highlighting the importance of oligodendrocytes in general CNS maintenance and in ...

The development of myelin and myelin-related cells
Trends in Neurosciences, 1981Abstract Myelin-related cells (Schwann cells and oligodendrocytes) co-operate with the axon in the formation and maintenance of myelin sheaths. Our understanding of the control of numbers and function of these cells is advancing rapidly; surprisingly, substantial differences between the biology of PNS and CNS myelin are coming to light.
