Some structural features of the peptide profile of myelin basic protein-hydrolyzing antibodies in schizophrenic patients [PDF]
The antibodies of schizophrenic patients that hydrolyze myelin basic protein (MBP) have been actively studied recently, but the mechanism of the catalytic properties of immunoglobulin molecules remains unknown.

Autoantigen microarrays reveal myelin basic protein autoantibodies in morphea [PDF]
Background Morphea is an autoimmune, sclerosing skin disorder. Despite the recent emphasis on immune dysregulation in morphea, the role of autoantibodies in morphea pathogenesis or utility as biomarkers are poorly defined.

Regional analysis of myelin basic protein across postnatal brain development of C57BL/6J mice [PDF]
Healthy brain development hinges on proper myelination, with disruption contributing to a wide array of neurological disorders. Immunohistochemical analysis of myelin basic protein (MBP) is a fundamental technique for investigating myelination and ...

Myelin Basic Protein and a Multiple Sclerosis-related MBP-peptide Bind to Oligonucleotides [PDF]
Aptamer ligands for myelin basic protein (MBP) were obtained using the systematic evolution of ligand by exponential enrichment (SELEX) method. Two clones were isolated from a pool of oligonucleotides and tested for MBP targeting.

Myelin Basic Protein and Cardiac Sympathetic Neurodegeneration in Nonhuman Primates [PDF]
Minimal myelination is proposed to be a contributing factor to the preferential nigral neuronal loss in Parkinson’s disease (PD). Similar to nigral dopaminergic neurons, sympathetic neurons innervating the heart have long, thin axons which are ...

Immunodominant fragments of myelin basic protein initiate T cell-dependent pain [PDF]
Background The myelin sheath provides electrical insulation of mechanosensory Aβ-afferent fibers. Myelin-degrading matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) damage the myelin sheath.

Molecular characterization of myelin basic protein a (mbpa) gene from red-bellied pacu (Piaractus brachypomus) [PDF]
Background Myelin basic protein (MBP) is one of the most important structural components of the myelin sheaths in both central and peripheral nervous systems. MBP has several functions including organization of the myelin membranes, reorganization of the
