Transplantation of Ciliary Neurotrophic Factor-Expressing Adult Oligodendrocyte Precursor Cells Promotes Remyelination and Functional Recovery after SpinalCord Injury [PDF]
, 2010 Demyelination contributes to the dysfunction after traumatic spinal cord injury (SCI). We explored whether the combination of neurotrophic factors and transplantation of adult rat spinal cord oligodendrocyte precursor cells (OPCs) could enhance ...

Interaction of PLP with GFP-MAL2 in the human oligodendroglial cell line HOG. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2011 The velocity of the nerve impulse conduction of vertebrates relies on the myelin sheath, an electrically insulating layer that surrounds axons in both the central and peripheral nervous systems, enabling saltatory conduction of the action potential ...

Advanced Science, EarlyView.TRPA1+αCGRP+ sensory neurons in the nodose ganglion detect external insults such as lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and interact directly with pulmonary neuroendocrine cells (PNECs), promoting their activation and proliferation. This neural‐epithelial interaction amplifies lung inflammation.

Fiber orientation-dependent white matter contrast in gradient echo MRI [PDF]
, 2012 Recent studies have shown that there is a direct link between the orientation of the nerve fibers in white matter (WM) and the contrast observed in magnitude and phase images acquired using gradient echo MRI.

Advanced Science, EarlyView.A macrophage–platelet conjugation system (M‐P‐NPs@PPARγ) targets injure tissue to co‐deliver platelet mitochondria and PPARγ‐encoding NPs. This strategy boosts the macrophage energy supply and restores lipid homeostasis, leading to synergistically enhanced efferocytosis and tissue repair Abstract Mitochondrial dysfunction occurs in macrophages with ...

Role of myelin sheath energy metabolism in neurodegenerative diseases
Neural Regeneration Research, 2015 More than any other organs, brain energy demand is entirely dependent on glucose catabolism through the oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS). Glucose is the major cerebral energy substrate in the nervous system (NS).

Probing white-matter microstructure with higher-order diffusion tensors and susceptibility tensor MRI. [PDF]
, 2013 Diffusion MRI has become an invaluable tool for studying white matter microstructure and brain connectivity. The emergence of quantitative susceptibility mapping and susceptibility tensor imaging (STI) has provided another unique tool for assessing the ...

Loss of Myelin Basic Protein Function Triggers Myelin Breakdown in Models of Demyelinating Diseases
Cell Reports, 2016 Breakdown of myelin sheaths is a pathological hallmark of several autoimmune diseases of the nervous system. We employed autoantibody-mediated animal models of demyelinating diseases, including a rat model of neuromyelitis optica (NMO), to target myelin ...

Aberrant Splicing Signatures Underpin Oligodendrocyte Damage in ALS and Neuron Loss in FTD
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Integrating bulk and single‐nucleus RNA‐seq from ALS and FTD patients, we revealed distinct cellular dysfunctions, with severe oligodendrocyte damage in ALS and pronounced neuron loss in FTD. We identified cell‐type‐specific aberrant splicing events as potential biomarkers with robust classification performance, some of which produce de novo peptides ...
