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

Specific Iron Binding to Natural Sphingomyelin Membrane Induced by Non-Specific Co-Solutes [PDF]
Hypothesis: Sphingomyelin (SPM), a crucial phospholipid in the myelin sheath, is vital in insulating nerve fibers. We hypothesize that iron ions selectively bind to the phosphatidylcholine (PC) template within the SPM membrane under near-physiological conditions, disrupting membrane organization.

Proteomic Insight Into Alzheimer's Disease Pathogenesis Pathways
ABSTRACT Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a leading cause of dementia, but the pathogenesis mechanism is still elusive. Advances in proteomics have uncovered key molecular mechanisms underlying AD, revealing a complex network of dysregulated pathways, including amyloid metabolism, tau pathology, apolipoprotein E (APOE), protein degradation ...

Inner Ear Immunity and Audio‐Vestibular Dysfunction
Diagram of the immune response of the inner ear and associated damage. ABSTRACT The inner ear is a critical sensory organ regulated by the immune system to maintain balance and respond to external stimuli. Immune cells like macrophages, lymphocytes, neutrophils, and natural killer cells play important roles in inner ear immunity. Inflammatory mediators,
