The Multiple Roles of Myelin Protein Genes During the Development of the Oligodendrocyte
It has become clear that the products of several of the earliest identified myelin protein genes perform functions that extend beyond the myelin sheath. Interestingly, these myelin proteins, which comprise proteolipid protein, 2′, 3′-cyclic nucleotide 3′-

Myelin Basic Protein and a Multiple Sclerosis-related MBP-peptide Bind to Oligonucleotides
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.

Generation of Neural Organoids and Their Application in Disease Modeling and Regenerative Medicine
Neural organoids provide a versatile platform for neurological research. Advances in organoid technology have partially achieved human neural tissue complexity in terms of tissue structure, cell diversity, and neural signaling, offering insights into neural disorders and regenerative strategies. Technology advances from biomaterials, bio‐manufacturing,

Activity of Cyclic AMP Phosphodiesterases and Adenylyl Cyclase in Peripheral Nerve after Crush and Permanent Transection Injuries [PDF]
Recent studies demonstrate that cAMP levels are tightly controlled during demyelination and remyelination in Schwann cells as cAMP decreases to 8–10% of normal following both sciatic nerve crush or permanent transection injury and only begins to increase

Analysis of Myelin Basic Protein Fragmentation by Proteasome [PDF]
The proteasome is a high molecular protein complex whose purpose is specific protein degradation in eukaryotic cells. One of the proteasome functions is to produce peptides, which will then be presented on the outer cell membrane using main histocompatibility complex (MHC) molecules of the first or second class.

Early childhood caries (ECC) involves cariogenic persisters that evade antimicrobial treatment. Persisters achieve this by downregulating heat shock proteins (HSPs) and formation of protein aggregates. Ti3C2 MXene‐based photothermal therapy (PTT) acts as a “nanothermal knife,” disrupting membranes, upregulating HSPs, inhibits aggregates, prevents ...

Amino acid sequence of the smaller basic protein from rat brain myelin.
1. The complete amino acid sequence of the smaller basic protein from rat brain myelin was determined. This protein differs from myelin basic proteins of other species in having a deletion of a polypeptide of 40 amino acid residues from the centre of the

D-Aspartic acid in purified myelin and myelin basic protein
The presence of the biologically uncommon D-isomer of aspartic acid in the white matter of human brains has been reported previously from this laboratory (1). We now report that the level of D-aspartate in human brains is higher in purified myelin than in white matter and is even higher in the myelin basic protein fraction.

Activation of Kir4.1 Channels by 2‐D08 Promotes Myelin Repair in Multiple Sclerosis
Multiple sclerosis causes myelin loss and neurological dysfunction. This study shows that 2‐D08, a small molecule targeting Kir4.1 channels, promotes OPCs differentiation via FYN tyrosine kinase phosphorylation and the FYN/MYRF pathway. It significantly improves myelin repair and motor deficits in EAE mice and marmosets, highlighting its potential as a

Myelin basic protein (MBP) is located in the insulating covers of nerve cells in the brain and spinal cord. By interacting with lipid membranes, it is responsible for compaction of the myelin sheath in the central nervous system, which is weakened in ...
