In vitro acylation of rat brain myelin proteolipid protein.
The incorporation of fatty acid into myelin proteolipid protein (PLP) was studied by incubating brain slices from 17-day-old rats with [9,10-3H]palmitic acid. Myelin proteins were analyzed by gel electrophoresis. As in vivo (Agrawal, H. C., Randle, C. L.,

Background Existing population‐based cohort studies have been devoted to find the correlation between atopic dermatitis (AD) and autoimmune diseases including multiple sclerosis (MS). However, whether there is a causal relationship between AD and MS remains elusive. Objective The study aims to assess the causal links between AD and MS.

Monitoring retinal changes with optical coherence tomography predicts neuronal loss in experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis. [PDF]
BACKGROUND:Retinal optical coherence tomography (OCT) is a clinical and research tool in multiple sclerosis, where it has shown significant retinal nerve fiber (RNFL) and ganglion cell (RGC) layer thinning, while postmortem studies have reported RGC loss.

In the mammalian CNS, oligodendrocyte precursor cells (OPCs) express most neurotransmitter receptors, but their function remains unclear. The current studies suggest a physiological role for glutamate (AMPA and/or kainate) receptors in OPC migration ...

A Spatially Resolved View on the Aging Substantia nigra: An Exploratory Proteomic Study
Although aging is the most important risk factor for several neurodegenerative diseases, the molecular effects of physiological aging are still understudied. By applying spatially‐resolved proteomic analyses of the human substantia nigra pars compacta, alterations in vesicular trafficking and mitochondrial proteins are observed, as well as reduced ...

Peptide/Antibody–Drug Conjugates for Therapeutic Applications in Inflammatory Disease
Peptide/antibody–drug conjugates (PADCs) combine ligand specificity and cleavable linkers to deliver drugs precisely to disease sites with minimal toxicity. While current approvals focus on oncology, this review examines their untapped potential in inflammatory diseases, detailing mechanisms of targeted delivery and highlighting advances that position ...

Naturally Occurring Nervonic Acid Ester Improves Myelin Synthesis by Human Oligodendrocytes
The dysfunction of oligodendrocytes (OLs) is regarded as one of the major causes of inefficient remyelination in multiple sclerosis, resulting gradually in disease progression.

The terminal differentiation of postmitotic oligodendrocytes is marked by the induction of myelin-specific genes. In this report, we demonstrate that culture conditions that induce oligodendrocyte differentiation of glial progenitor cells also induce ...

Temporal and partial inhibition of GLI1 in neural stem cells (NSCs) results in the early maturation of NSC derived oligodendrocytes in vitro. [PDF]
BackgroundOligodendrocytes are a type of glial cells that synthesize the myelin sheath around the axons and are critical for the nerve conduction in the CNS.
