Myelin sheath injury and repairment after subarachnoid hemorrhage [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2023
Subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) can lead to damage to the myelin sheath in white matter. Through classification and analysis of relevant research results, the discussion in this paper provides a deeper understanding of the spatiotemporal change ...

Myelinating Schwann Cell Polarity and Mechanically-Driven Myelin Sheath Elongation [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2018
Myelin sheath geometry, encompassing myelin sheath thickness relative to internodal length, is critical to optimize nerve conduction velocity and these parameters are carefully adjusted by the myelinating cells in mammals.

Clinical concentration of sevoflurane had no short-term effect on the myelin sheath in prefrontal cortex of aged marmosets [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience
IntroductionThe fragile brain includes both the developing brain in childhood and the deteriorating brain in elderly. While the effects of general anesthesia on the myelin sheath of developing brain have been well-documented, limited research has ...

Oligodendrocyte calcium signaling promotes actin-dependent myelin sheath extension [PDF]

open access: yesNature Communications
Myelin is essential for rapid nerve signaling and is increasingly found to play important roles in learning and in diverse diseases of the CNS. Morphological parameters of myelin such as sheath length are thought to precisely tune conduction velocity ...

Treadmilling Model for Plasticity of the Myelin Sheath. [PDF]

open access: yesTrends Neurosci, 2019
We propose a mechanism for myelin plasticity that would complement synaptic plasticity by adjusting conduction velocity for optimal spike-time arrival. In the proposed treadmilling model, myelin sheath thickness is a dynamic balance between the rates of new myelin deposited adjacent to the axon and removal of the outermost layer.

Shielding effects of myelin sheath on axolemma depolarization under transverse electric field stimulation [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ, 2018
Axonal stimulation with electric currents is an effective method for controlling neural activity. An electric field parallel to the axon is widely accepted as the predominant component in the activation of an axon.

Role of Connexin-Based Gap Junction Channels in Communication of Myelin Sheath in Schwann Cells [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2019
Peripheral nerves have the capacity to conduct action potentials along great distances and quickly recover following damage which is mainly due to Schwann cells (SCs), the most abundant glial cells of the peripheral nervous system (PNS).
