Olig2/Plp-positive progenitor cells give rise to Bergmann glia in the cerebellum. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
NG2 (nerve/glial antigen2)-expressing cells represent the largest population of postnatal progenitors in the central nervous system and have been classified as oligodendroglial progenitor cells, but the fate and function of these cells remain ...

Demyelination and axonal preservation in a transgenic mouse model of Pelizaeus-Merzbacher disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
It is widely thought that demyelination contributes to the degeneration of axons and, in combination with acute inflammatory injury, is responsible for progressive axonal loss and persistent clinical disability in inflammatory demyelinating disease.

Proteolipid protein–deficient myelin promotes axonal mitochondrial dysfunction via altered metabolic coupling

open access: yesJournal of Cell Biology, 2016
The authors show that central nervous system myelin lacking proteolipid protein (PLP) induces mitochondrial dysfunction, including altered motility, degeneration, and ectopic smooth endoplasmic reticulum interactions, leading to axonal structural defects

Neutron scattering studies on protein dynamics using the human myelin peripheral membrane protein P2

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2015
Myelin is a multilayered proteolipid membrane structure surrounding selected axons in the vertebrate nervous system, which allows the rapid saltatory conduction of nerve impulses.

Mild myelin disruption elicits early alteration in behavior and proliferation in the subventricular zone

open access: yeseLife, 2018
Myelin, the insulating sheath around axons, supports axon function. An important question is the impact of mild myelin disruption. In the absence of the myelin protein proteolipid protein (PLP1), myelin is generated but with age, axonal function ...

Effect of Sox10 on remyelination of the hippocampus in cuprizone‐induced demyelinated mice

open access: yesBrain and Behavior, 2020
Objective The low number of oligodendrocytes (OLs) in the hippocampus of patients with schizophrenia suggests that hippocampal demyelination is changed in this condition. Sox10 is expressed throughout OL development.

Effect Of Gender On T-Cell Proliferative Responses To Myelin Proteolipid Protein Antigens In Patients With Multiple Sclerosis And Controls [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is an inflammatory demyelinating disorder of the central nervous system. Gender influences both susceptibility to MS, with the disease being more common in women, and the clinical course of disease, with an increased proportion of

The Multiple Roles of Myelin Protein Genes During the Development of the Oligodendrocyte

open access: yesASN Neuro, 2009
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′-

Evaluation of the diffusion MRI white matter tract integrity model using myelin histology and Monte-Carlo simulations

open access: yesNeuroImage, 2020
Quantitative evaluation of brain myelination has drawn considerable attention. Conventional diffusion-based magnetic resonance imaging models, including diffusion tensor imaging and diffusion kurtosis imaging (DKI),11 AD: Axial diffusivity; AK: Axial ...

The lateral membrane organization and dynamics of myelin proteins PLP and MBP are dictated by distinct galactolipids and the extracellular matrix. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
In the central nervous system, lipid-protein interactions are pivotal for myelin maintenance, as these interactions regulate protein transport to the myelin membrane as well as the molecular organization within the sheath. To improve our understanding of
