Astrocytes and Microglia as Major Players of Myelin Production in Normal and Pathological Conditions

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2020
Myelination is an essential process that consists of the ensheathment of axons by myelin. In the central nervous system (CNS), myelin is synthesized by oligodendrocytes. The proliferation, migration, and differentiation of oligodendrocyte precursor cells

An interactive meta-analysis of MRI biomarkers of myelin

open access: yesbioRxiv, 2020
Several MRI measures have been proposed as in vivo biomarkers of myelin, each with applications ranging from plasticity to pathology. Despite the availability of these myelin-sensitive modalities, specificity and sensitivity have been a matter of ...

Clinical presentation and outcome in infantile Sandhoff disease: a case series of 25 patients from Iranian neurometabolic bioregistry with five novel mutations

open access: yesOrphanet Journal of Rare Diseases, 2018
Background Infantile Sandhoff disease (ISD) is a GM2 gangliosidosis that is classified as a lysosomal storage disorder. The most common symptoms of affected individuals at presentation are neurologic involvement.

Identification of 3' UTR motifs required for mRNA localization to myelin sheaths in vivo.

open access: yesPLoS Biology, 2021
Myelin is a specialized membrane produced by oligodendrocytes that insulates and supports axons. Oligodendrocytes extend numerous cellular processes, as projections of the plasma membrane, and simultaneously wrap multiple layers of myelin membrane around

Polyphosphoinositides in myelin [PDF]

open access: yesBiochemical Journal, 1965
1. On fractionation of guinea-pig forebrain homogenates by differential and gradient-density centrifugation most of the polyphosphoinositides were recovered in the myelin-rich particles. 2. The phospholipids of pure preparations of myelin contained di- and tri-phosphoinositide in proportions 2-3 times greater than in the whole-brain phospholipids.

Ceruloplasmin deletion in myelinating glial cells induces myelin disruption and oxidative stress in the central and peripheral nervous systems

open access: yesRedox Biology, 2021
Ceruloplasmin (Cp) is a ferroxidase enzyme that is essential for cell iron efflux and has been postulated to have a neuroprotective role. During the myelination process, oligodendrocytes (OLs) and Schwann cells (SCs) express high levels of Cp, but the ...

Neuron to Oligodendrocyte Precursor Cell Synapses: Protagonists in Oligodendrocyte Development and Myelination, and Targets for Therapeutics

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2022
The development of neuronal circuitry required for cognition, complex motor behaviors, and sensory integration requires myelination. The role of glial cells such as astrocytes and microglia in shaping synapses and circuits have been covered in other ...

Nanoscale correlated disorder in out-of-equilibrium myelin ultrastructure [PDF]

open access: yesACS Nano 12(1), 729-739 (2018), 2017
Ultrastructural fluctuations at nanoscale are fundamental to assess properties and functionalities of advanced out-of-equilibrium materials. We have taken myelin as a model of supramolecular assembly in out-of-equilibrium living matter. Myelin sheath is a simple stable multi-lamellar structure of high relevance and impact in biomedicine. Although it is

CD36-mediated uptake of myelin debris by macrophages and microglia reduces neuroinflammation

open access: yesJournal of Neuroinflammation, 2020
Background The presence of foamy macrophages and microglia containing intracellular myelin remnants is a pathological hallmark of neurodegenerative disorders such as multiple sclerosis (MS).

Pathological Insights From Quantitative Susceptibility Mapping and Diffusion Tensor Imaging in Ice Hockey Players Pre and Post-concussion

open access: yesFrontiers in Neurology, 2018
Myelin sensitive MRI techniques, such as diffusion tensor imaging and myelin water imaging, have previously been used to reveal changes in myelin after sports-related concussions.
