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 ...

Dipolar induced spin-lattice relaxation in the myelin sheath: A molecular dynamics study. [PDF]
Interactions between hydrogen protons of water molecules and macromolecules within the myelin sheath surrounding the axons are a major factor influencing the magnetic resonance (MR) contrast in white matter (WM) regions.

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.

Regulation of developing myelin sheath elongation by oligodendrocyte calcium transients in vivo. [PDF]
How action potentials regulate myelination by oligodendrocytes is uncertain. We show that neuronal activity raises [Ca2+]i in developing oligodendrocytes in vivo and that myelin sheath elongation is promoted by a high frequency of [Ca2+]i transients and ...

A space-fractional cable equation for the propagation of action potentials in myelinated neurons [PDF]
Myelinated neurons are characterized by the presence of myelin, a multilaminated wrapping around the axons formed by specialized neuroglial cells. Myelin acts as an electrical insulator and therefore, in myelinated neurons, the action potentials do not ...

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
