A diffusion MRI model for random walks confined on cylindrical surfaces: towards non-invasive quantification of myelin sheath radius [PDF]
Introduction: Quantifying the myelin sheath radius of myelinated axons in vivo is important for understanding, diagnosing, and monitoring various neurological disorders.

Role of SoxE transcription factors in development and disease
Abstract Sox8, Sox9, and Sox10 arose by multiple rounds of genome duplications from a single SoxE gene in ancestral vertebrates. In this review, we will briefly discuss the molecular structure and function of SoxE transcription factors and their evolutionary origin. We will then discuss their expression, function, and developmental disorders.

Investigating mechanisms of myelin sheath length regulation and plasticity [PDF]
Myelination of axons is important for proper functioning of the nervous system and breakdown of myelin can cause severe disabilities. By regulating nerve conduction, myelination is also critical for learning and memory processes.

Abstract Background Dexmedetomidine infusions are beneficial in anaesthetised endotoxaemic horses when administered concurrent to endotoxin, but post‐conditioning effects are unknown. Objectives To evaluate whether a dexmedetomidine infusion is beneficial in horses administered Escherichia coli O55:B5 lipopolysaccharides (LPS) endotoxin prior to ...

The sural nerves of 4 patients showed similar pathological features of sausage-shaped thickenings of the myelin sheaths ranging in length from 80 to 250 μm, of up to 27 μm diameter and affecting fibres of all sizes.

Research progress on the role of inflammatory mediators in the pathogenesis of epilepsy
In the central nervous system, activated immune cells lead to the overproduction of inflammatory mediators through the corresponding signal pathway. Under the stimulation of inflammatory factors, neuroinflammation ultimately occurs. Overexpression of inflammatory mediators and activated immunocytes plays an important role in the emergence and ...

Somatosensory Disturbance and Long‐Term Exposure to Methylmercury: A Comprehensive Review
ABSTRACT Chronic exposure to methylmercury remains a significant public health concern, particularly in populations with high fish consumption. Somatosensory disturbances are among the most frequently reported neurological manifestations, even at exposure levels below internationally established safety thresholds. This review aims to synthesize current

ABSTRACT Oxaliplatin is a platinum‐based anticancer agent widely used for gastrointestinal malignancies; however, it is known to cause dose‐dependent peripheral neuropathy (OIPN), a characteristic adverse effect. OIPN results in a reduced quality of life and often necessitates dose reduction or discontinuation of oxaliplatin; however, effective ...

Our previous studies reported evidence for aerobic ATP synthesis by myelin from both bovine brainstem and rat sciatic nerve. Considering that the optic nerve displays a high oxygen demand, here we evaluated the expression and activity of the five ...
