Fibroblast Growth Factor Receptor Signaling in Oligodendrocytes Regulates Myelin Sheath Thickness

open access: yesJournal of Neuroscience, 2012
Formation of the CNS white matter is developmentally tightly regulated, but the molecules and mechanisms of myelination control in the postnatal CNS are poorly understood.

Glial βii spectrin contributes to paranode formation and maintenance [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Action potential conduction along myelinated axons depends on high densities of voltage-gated Na channels at the nodes of Ranvier. Flanking each node, paranodal junctions (paranodes) are formed between axons and Schwann cells in the peripheral nervous ...

An elastic segment of the whisker shaft enables coding of the whisking phase via whisker torsion in rats and mice

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
An elastic segment was found in the basal part of the whisker shaft in rats and mice. Application of force to the whisker bulb of isolated follicles caused bending and twisting of this segment. Active whisker movements deform this segment, causing whisker shaft deflection and selective activation of mechanoreceptors at different phases of whisking ...

Citrullination – small change with a great consequence [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Citrullination is one of the possible post-translational modifications of proteins. It is based on a conversion of L-arginine residue (L-Arg) to L-citrulline residue (L-Cit). The reaction is catalyzed by peptidylarginine deiminases (PAD). The change of L-

A critical reappraisal of the carotid sinus and carotid bulb: Distinguishing neurohistological function from vascular geometry

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
This review redefines the carotid bulb (CB) as a variable geometric dilation shaped by hemodynamics and the carotid sinus (CS) as a conserved neurohistological baroreceptor field. Distinguishing these entities clarifies a century of anatomical confusion and links geometry, neurohistology, and clinical interpretation within a unified framework ...

Evidence that an RGD-dependent receptor mediates the binding of oligodendrocytes to a novel ligand in a glial-derived matrix. [PDF]

open access: yes, 1988
A simple adhesion assay was used to measure the interaction between rat oligodendrocytes and various substrata, including a matrix secreted by glial cells. Oligodendrocytes bound to surfaces coated with fibronectin, vitronectin and a protein component of

Silk fibroin‐based biomaterials for spinal cord injury repair: Recent advances and future prospects

open access: yesBMEMat, EarlyView.
A comprehensive review on the design principles and current strategies of silk fibroin‐based biomaterials in spinal cord injury repair, focusing on environmentally friendly processing techniques, and the strategies for designing composite scaffolds as well as discussing the advantages and current challenges of silk fibroin‐based biomaterials in spinal ...

Formation of Compact Myelin Is Required for Maturation of the Axonal Cytoskeleton [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
Although traditional roles ascribed to myelinating glial cells are structural and supportive, the importance of compact myelin for proper functioning of the nervous system can be inferred from mutations in myelin proteins and neuropathologies associated ...
