Connexin32 and X-linked Charcot–Marie–Tooth Disease

open access: yesNeurobiology of Disease, 1997
Mutations in the gap junction geneconnexin32(Cx32) cause the X-linked form of Charcot–Marie–Tooth disease, an inherited demyelinating neuropathy. More than 130 different mutations have been described, affecting all portions of the Cx32 protein.

Role of Dexras1-mediated inflammatory response in white matter damage after subarachnoid hemorrhage in rats

open access: yesDi-san junyi daxue xuebao, 2020
Objective To explore the mechanisms by which Dexras1 promotes inflammation and participates in white matter damage (WMD) after subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). Methods Ninety healthy adult male SD rats were randomly divided into control group (sham group),

Advantages of Adult Mouse Dorsal Root Ganglia Explant Culture in Investigating Myelination in an Inherited Neuropathic Mice Model

open access: yesMethods and Protocols, 2022
A co-culture of neurons and Schwann cells has frequently been used to investigate myelin sheath formation. However, this approach is restricted to myelin-related diseases of the peripheral nervous system.

Regulating PPARG Reduces Lipid Accumulation in Microglia and Promotes Functional Recovery After Spinal Cord Injury

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Macrophages infiltrate the spinal cord post‐injury, decreasing over time. Microglia phagocytose myelin debris, increasing lipid accumulation. Macrophage deletion improves outcomes, while microglial deletion worsens them. The LD+ microglia subtype shows abnormal Pparg signaling.

Myelin organization in the nodal, paranodal, and juxtaparanodal regions revealed by scanning x-ray microdiffraction. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
X-ray diffraction has provided extensive information about the arrangement of lipids and proteins in multilamellar myelin. This information has been limited to the abundant inter-nodal regions of the sheath because these regions dominate the scattering ...

Galectin-1 in myelin repair [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Galectin-1 (Gal-1) is a member of a highly conserved family of animal lectins which binds to the common disaccharide [Galβ(1-4)-GlcNAc] on both N- and O-glycans decorating cell surface glycoconjugates.

Dnmt1 Alleviates S1PR1‐Mediated Pyroptosis after Spinal Cord Injury through Regulating Pon3 Expression

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study systematically explores the action mechanism of Pon3 and its regulatory targets in spinal cord injury (SCI). It demonstrates that Dnmt1 regulates Pon3 expression by modulating methylation levels, thereby inhibiting S1PR1‐mediated pyroptosis and improving SCI prognosis.

A Myelin Proteolipid Protein-LacZ Fusion Protein Is Developmentally Regulated and Targeted to the Myelin Membrane in Transgenic Mice [PDF]

open access: yes, 1993
Transgenic mice were generated with a fusion gene carrying a portion of the murine myelin proteolipid protein (PLP) gene, including the first intron, fused to the E. coli LacZ gene.

Partial Reprogramming in Senescent Schwann Cells Enhances Peripheral Nerve Regeneration via Restoration of Stress Granule Homeostasis

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
In this study, it is discovered that pathological accumulation of Runx2+ Schwann cell clusters​ during axonal regeneration is a key factor impairing nerve repair in aging. This pathology is associated with ​dysregulation of stress granule homeostasis.

Are there optical communication channels in the brain?

open access: yes, 2017
Despite great progress in neuroscience, there are still fundamental unanswered questions about the brain, including the origin of subjective experience and consciousness. Some answers might rely on new physical mechanisms. Given that biophotons have been
