Individual Oligodendrocytes Have Only a Few Hours in which to Generate New Myelin Sheaths In Vivo [PDF]
The number of myelin sheaths made by individual oligodendrocytes regulates the extent of myelination, which profoundly affects central nervous system function.

Structural and molecular characteristics of axons in the long head of the biceps tendon [PDF]
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.

The effect of vascular graft and human umbilical cord blood-derived CD34+ stem cell on peripheral nerve healing [PDF]
AIM: There are many trials concerning peripheral nerve damage causes and treatment options. Unfortunately, nerve damage is still a major problem regarding health, social and economic issues.

Studies have provided qualitative evidence of de-myelination and re-myelination in aged brain white matter. However, there have been no quantitative evidences of degeneration and regeneration of myelin sheaths in white matter.

Optimization of electron microscopy for human brains with long-term fixation and fixed-frozen sections. [PDF]
BackgroundAbnormal connectivity across brain regions underlies many neurological disorders including multiple sclerosis, schizophrenia and autism, possibly due to atypical axonal organization within white matter.

Myelin-like sheaths in copepod axons [PDF]
Copepods, the small planktonic crustaceans that are the most abundant metazoans in the oceans, are so successful partly because they have an escape response that accelerates them to 200 body lengths per second within milliseconds1,3. We find that nerve fibres of many copepods seem to be designed for rapid signalling.

Mechanical waves in myelinated axon wall [PDF]
The propagation of an action potential is accompanied by mechanical and thermal effects. Several mathematical models explain the deformation of the unmyelinated axon wall. In this paper, the deformation of the myelinated axon wall is studied. The mathematical model is inspired by the mechanics of microstructured materials.

Effect of Sox10 on remyelination of the hippocampus in cuprizone‐induced demyelinated mice
Objective The low number of oligodendrocytes (OLs) in the hippocampus of patients with schizophrenia suggests that hippocampal demyelination is changed in this condition. Sox10 is expressed throughout OL development.

Acutely damaged axons are remyelinated in multiple sclerosis and experimental models of demyelination [PDF]
Remyelination is in the center of new therapies for the treatment of multiple sclerosis to resolve and improve disease symptoms and protect axons from further damage.
