Astroglial-axonal interactions during early stages of myelination in mixed cultures using in vitro and ex vivo imaging techniques [PDF]
<b>Background</b><p></p> Myelination is a very complex process that requires the cross talk between various neural cell types.

Advances in the pathogenesis of Rett syndrome using cell models
Most Rett syndrome (RTT) patients are affected by the MECP2 gene mutations. And the mutations of MECP2 have wide effects on different cell types of nervous system, including neurons, astrocytes, oligodendrocytes and microglia, which always combined together to lead to abnormalities in the whole neural network.

PLG Bridge Implantation in Chronic SCI Promotes Axonal Elongation and Myelination. [PDF]
Spinal cord injury (SCI) is a devastating condition that may cause permanent functional loss below the level of injury, including paralysis and loss of bladder, bowel, and sexual function.

Myelin pathology: Involvement of molecular chaperones and the promise of chaperonotherapy [PDF]
The process of axon myelination involves various proteins including molecular chaperones. Myelin alteration is a common feature in neurological diseases due to structural and functional abnormalities of one or more myelin proteins.

Polyphosphoinositides in myelin [PDF]
1. On fractionation of guinea-pig forebrain homogenates by differential and gradient-density centrifugation most of the polyphosphoinositides were recovered in the myelin-rich particles. 2. The phospholipids of pure preparations of myelin contained di- and tri-phosphoinositide in proportions 2-3 times greater than in the whole-brain phospholipids.

Abstract Objective Childhood cancer and cancer‐related treatments disrupt brain development and maturation, placing survivors at risk for cognitive late effects. Given that assessment tools vary widely across researchers and clinicians, it has been daunting to identify distinct patterns in outcomes across diverse cancer types and to implement ...

Nanoscale correlated disorder in out-of-equilibrium myelin ultrastructure [PDF]
Ultrastructural fluctuations at nanoscale are fundamental to assess properties and functionalities of advanced out-of-equilibrium materials. We have taken myelin as a model of supramolecular assembly in out-of-equilibrium living matter. Myelin sheath is a simple stable multi-lamellar structure of high relevance and impact in biomedicine. Although it is

MicroRNA-23a promotes myelination in the central nervous system. [PDF]
Demyelinating disorders including leukodystrophies are devastating conditions that are still in need of better understanding, and both oligodendrocyte differentiation and myelin synthesis pathways are potential avenues for developing treatment ...

Protein cysteine residues can be oxidized by nitric oxide (NO) to form protein S‐nitrosothiols (SNOs) in a process called S‐nitrosylation. S‐nitrosoglutathione reductase (GSNOR) is a highly specific denitrase for GSNO; it controls the intracellular levels of GSNO and protein SNOs and protects the body from nitrosative stress.

Mapping the human cortical surface by combining quantitative T(1) with retinotopy [PDF]
We combined quantitative relaxation rate (R1= 1/T1) mapping-to measure local myelination-with fMRI-based retinotopy. Gray-white and pial surfaces were reconstructed and used to sample R1 at different cortical depths.
