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

Aerobic exercise attenuates abnormal myelination and oligodendrocyte differentiation in 3xTg-AD mice
Experimental Gerontology, 2023 Pathological features of Alzheimer's Disease (AD) include alterations in the structure and function of neurons as well as of myelin sheaths. Accumulated evidence shows that aerobic type of exercise can enhance neuroplasticity in mouse models of AD ...

Advanced Maternal Age Impairs Myelination in Offspring Rats
Frontiers in Pediatrics, 2022 The effects of advanced maternal age (AMA) on the neurodevelopment of offspring are becoming increasingly important. Myelination is an important aspect of brain development; however, a limited number of studies have focused on the effects of AMA on ...

Identification of 3' UTR motifs required for mRNA localization to myelin sheaths in vivo.
PLoS Biology, 2021 Myelin is a specialized membrane produced by oligodendrocytes that insulates and supports axons. Oligodendrocytes extend numerous cellular processes, as projections of the plasma membrane, and simultaneously wrap multiple layers of myelin membrane around

Neurokeratin Network of Myelin Sheaths [PDF]
Nature, 1960 THE recent communication of Tewari and Bourne1 on the neurokeratin network of peripheral nerve fibres is valuable not only for its intrinsic content but also because it validates the histological procedures, findings and arguments derived therefrom, by which it was concluded that neurokeratin formations are part of the architecture of the nerve fibres ...

Mechanical Responses of a Single Myelin Layer: A Molecular Simulation Study
Biomolecules, 2023 The myelin sheath provides insulation to the brain’s neuron cells, which aids in signal transmission and communication with the body. Degenerated myelin hampers the connection between the glial cells, which are the front row responders during traumatic ...

Loss of ABCA8B decreases myelination by reducing oligodendrocyte precursor cells in mice
Journal of Lipid Research, 2022 The myelin sheath, which is wrapped around axons, is a lipid-enriched structure produced by mature oligodendrocytes. Disruption of the myelin sheath is observed in several neurological diseases, such as multiple sclerosis.

Microtubules, Myelin Sheaths, and Altered Behavior [PDF]
eneuro, 2021 Mice are skttish creatures that innately hide from perceived threats by staying out of open areas, freezing to avoid predators, or hiding in dark spaces when an adverse stimulus is sensed. However, after inducing a global TPPP (tubulin polymerization promoting protein) gene knock-out (KO), which results in reduced myelin length and thickness (Fu et al.,
