Autosomal Recessive Spastic Ataxia of Charlevoix‐Saguenay in Two Half‐Siblings

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Autosomal recessive spastic ataxia of Charlevoix‐Saguenay (ARSACS) is caused by biallelic pathogenic variants in the SACS gene. We report the clinical, radiologic and neurophysiologic features of a pair of half‐siblings who presented with progressive cerebellar ataxia, peripheral neuropathy and upper motor neuron signs.

Distinctive Structural and Molecular Features of Myelinated Inhibitory Axons in Human Neocortex. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Numerous types of inhibitory neurons sculpt the performance of human neocortical circuits, with each type exhibiting a constellation of subcellular phenotypic features in support of its specialized functions.

Myelin histology: a key tool in nervous system research

open access: yesNeural Regeneration Research
The myelin sheath is a lipoprotein-rich, multilayered structure capable of increasing conduction velocity in central and peripheral myelinated nerve fibers. Due to the complex structure and composition of myelin, various histological techniques have been

Salvianolic acid B protects the myelin sheath around injured spinal cord axons

open access: yesNeural Regeneration Research, 2016
Salvianolic acid B, an active pharmaceutical compound present in Salvia miltiorrhiza, exerts a neuroprotective effect in animal models of brain and spinal cord injury.

Heterogeneity and regulation of oligodendrocyte morphology

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2022
Oligodendrocytes form multiple myelin sheaths in the central nervous system (CNS), which increase nerve conduction velocity and are necessary for basic and higher brain functions such as sensory function, motor control, and learning.

Persistent Leukoencephalopathy Following H1N1 Infection Associated With a Novel MYRF Variant (p.Gly735Asp)

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Mutations in myelin regulatory factor (MYRF) are linked to demyelinating disorders. We report a 38‐year‐old male who developed acute symmetric leukoencephalopathy mimicking a stroke following an influenza A virus infection. While clinical symptoms markedly improved with corticosteroids, MRI revealed persistent white matter lesions, contrasting

White matter integrity in mice requires continuous myelin synthesis at the inner tongue

open access: yesNature Communications, 2022
Myelin, the electrically insulating sheath on axons, undergoes dynamic changes over time. However, it is composed of proteins with long lifetimes. This raises the question how such a stable structure is renewed. Here, we study the integrity of myelinated

Monoclonal antibodies to the cells of a regenerating limb [PDF]

open access: yes, 1985
Monoclonal antibodies were raised against differentiated cells, and blastemal cells from regenerating limbs of adult newts (Notophthalmus viridescens) and screened for specific staining by immunocytochemistry.

A physical perspective to understand myelin II: The physical origin of myelin development

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2022
The physical principle of myelin development is obtained from our previous study by explaining Peter’s quadrant mystery: an externally applied negative and positive E-field can promote and inhibit the growth of the inner tongue of the myelin sheath ...
