Auditory Stimulation of Slow‐Wave Sleep Promotes Recovery after Brain Injury in an Animal Model

Annals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective Traumatic brain injury (TBI) significantly reduces the quality of life for millions of survivors worldwide, causing persistent brain tissue damage and cognitive impairments, with no established therapeutic interventions currently available.

Monoallelic POLR3A Variants Cause Early‐Onset Peripheral Neuropathy

Annals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective Biallelic variants in genes encoding the RNA polymerase III complex (Pol III) cause a spectrum of neurological disorders primarily affecting the central nervous system. Monoallelic variants have been reported in the POLR3B subunit only, associated with neurodevelopmental disorder, epilepsy, and peripheral neuropathy.

Psychiatric Implications of Genetic Variations in Oligodendrocytes: Insights from hiPSC Models

Life
Oligodendrocyte precursor cells (OPCs) are a dynamic and heterogeneous population of glial cells essential for brain development and myelination. Beyond their well-established role in oligodendrogenesis, emerging evidence suggests that OPCs contribute to

Myelination: all about Rac ‘n’ roll [PDF]

, 2007
During the development of the peripheral nervous system, Schwann cells select individual axons from a nerve bundle and establish a one-to-one relationship through a process termed "radial sorting".

Scoping literature review: Comparing MRI tractography methods for optic radiation analysis

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Accurate tractography mapping of the optic radiations is essential to avoiding post‐operative visual field deficits in patients undergoing temporal lobe surgery. This literature review highlights the current landscape of MRI tractography methods that are used to delineate the optic radiations (ORs), with a particular focus on the anterior ...

Astrocytes Promote Myelination in Response to Electrical Impulses

, 2006
SummaryMyelin, the insulating layers of membrane wrapped around axons by oligodendrocytes, is essential for normal impulse conduction. It forms during late stages of fetal development but continues into early adult life.

Nerve Growth Factor is Sufficient to Cause Multiple Osteoarthritis‐Relevant Pathologic Features in Naïve Murine Knee Joints

Arthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective Nerve growth factor (NGF), a key mediator of pain, is increased in osteoarthritic (OA) joints. Antibodies against NGF show analgesic effects in painful knee OA, but clinical development was stopped because of side effects in the joints. Knowledge about the biologic effects of NGF on joint tissues is limited. Therefore, we explored the effects

Force stimulation promotes nerve regeneration by restoring cellular energy

BMEMat, EarlyView.
Mechanical stimulation can help nerves regenerate in various ways. We developed two devices (a piezo‐motor‐driven stretching device and a SAW‐based actuator) to apply mechanical stimulation to sciatic nerve and DRG neurons. Our study shows that appropriate mechanical force stimulation can promote regeneration by restoring the energy supply to the ...

Investigating endothelin receptor B signalling during myelination

, 2017
A key process enabling the correct functioning of neural circuits involves the formation of multi‐layered membranous myelin sheaths around axons. Myelin sheaths, made by specialised glial cells called oligodendrocytes in the central nervous system ...

Vimentin regulates peripheral nerve myelination

, 2012
Myelination is a complex process that requires coordinated Schwann cell-axon interactions during development and regeneration. Positive and negative regulators of myelination have been recently described, and can belong either to Schwann cells or neurons.
