Microglia phagocytose myelin sheaths to modify developmental myelination [PDF]
Nature Neuroscience, 2020 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

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

Structural and molecular characteristics of axons in the long head of the biceps tendon [PDF]
, 2020 The innervation of the long head of the biceps tendon (LHBT) is not sufficiently documented. This is a drawback since pathologies of the LHBT are a major source of shoulder pain.

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 ...
