Aerobic exercise attenuates abnormal myelination and oligodendrocyte differentiation in 3xTg-AD mice
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 ...

Microglia phagocytose myelin sheaths to modify developmental myelination [PDF]
During development, oligodendrocytes contact and wrap neuronal axons with myelin. Similarly to neurons and synapses, excess myelin sheaths are produced and selectively eliminated, but how elimination occurs is unknown. Microglia, the resident immune cells of the central nervous system, engulf surplus neurons and synapses. To determine whether microglia

Advanced Maternal Age Impairs Myelination in Offspring Rats
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.
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]
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
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
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.
