Microglia phagocytose myelin sheaths to modify developmental myelination [PDF]

open access: yesNature 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

Advanced Maternal Age Impairs Myelination in Offspring Rats

open access: yesFrontiers 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 ...

Spatio-temporal modeling of saltatory conduction in neurons using Poisson-Nernst-Planck treatment and estimation of conduction velocity [PDF]

open access: yesBrain Multiphysics, 2022, 2022
Action potential propagation along the axons and across the dendrites is the foundation of the electrical activity observed in the brain and the rest of the central nervous system. Theoretical and numerical modeling of this action potential activity has long been a key focus area of electro-chemical neuronal modeling.

Microtubules, Myelin Sheaths, and Altered Behavior [PDF]

open access: yeseneuro, 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.,

Mechanical Responses of a Single Myelin Layer: A Molecular Simulation Study

open access: yesBiomolecules, 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 ...

A companion to the preclinical common data elements and case report forms for neuropathology studies in epilepsy research. A report of the TASK3 WG2 Neuropathology Working Group of the ILAE/AES Joint Translational Task Force

open access: yesEpilepsia Open, EarlyView., 2022
Abstract The International League Against Epilepsy/American Epilepsy Society (ILAE/AES) Joint Translational Task Force initiated the TASK3 working group to create common data elements (CDEs) for various aspects of preclinical epilepsy research studies, which could help improve the standardization of experimental designs.

A myelin sheath protein forming its lattice. [PDF]

open access: yesJ Biol Chem, 2020
The formation of a mature, multilayered myelin sheath requires the compaction of lipid bilayers, but the molecular mechanism by which these bilayers condense is an open question. In this issue, Ruskamo et al. find that peripheral myelin protein P2 forms an ordered three-dimensional lattice within model membranes using Escherichia coli polar lipid ...
