CTCF-mediated chromatin looping in EGR2 regulation and SUZ12 recruitment critical for peripheral myelination and repair

open access: yesNature Communications, 2020
Myelination by Schwann cells (SC) in the peripheral nervous system is essential for motor function, and dysregulation of SC myelination can lead to various neuropathies.

Polyphosphoinositides in myelin [PDF]

open access: yesBiochemical Journal, 1965
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.

Functional duality of astrocytes in myelination [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Astrocytes undergo major phenotypic changes in response to injury and disease that directly influence repair in the CNS, but the mechanisms involved are poorly understood. Previously, we have shown that neurosphere-derived rat astrocytes plated on poly-L-

Schwann cell spectrins modulate peripheral nerve myelination [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
During peripheral nerve development, Schwann cells ensheathe axons and form myelin to enable rapid and efficient action potential propagation. Although myelination requires profound changes in Schwann cell shape, how neuron–glia interactions converge on ...

Initiation of CNS Myelination in the Optic Nerve Is Dependent on Axon Caliber

open access: yesCell Reports, 2018
Summary: Emerging evidence suggests that neuronal signaling is important for oligodendrocyte myelination; however, the necessity of this signaling during development is unclear.

Dynamics and Mechanisms of CNS Myelination [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Vertebrate myelination is an evolutionary advancement essential for motor, sensory, and higher-order cognitive function. CNS myelin, a multilamellar differentiation of the oligodendrocyte plasma membrane, ensheaths axons to facilitate electrical ...

Necl-4/SynCAM-4 is expressed in myelinating oligodendrocytes but not required for axonal myelination.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
The timing and progression of axonal myelination are precisely controlled by intercellular interactions between neurons and glia in development. Previous in vitro studies demonstrated that Nectin like 4 (Necl-4, also known as cell adhesion molecule Cadm ...

Role of tumor necrosis factor-alpha in zebrafish retinal neurogenesis and myelination [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Ophthalmology, 2016
AIM: To investigate the role of tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) in zebrafish retinal development and myelination. METHODS: Morpholino oligonucleotides (MO), which are complementary to the translation start site of the wild-type embryonic zebrafish ...

The organization of microtubules and Tau in oligodendrocytes: Tau pathology in damaged oligodendrocytes

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2022
Tau is abundantly expressed in neurons, however previous reports and our recent study showed tau also exist in oligodendrocytes. Also the expression levels of tau are dramatical changed in hypomyelination model rat and in demyelination region of stroke ...

HIFα Regulates Developmental Myelination Independent of Autocrine Wnt Signaling. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
The developing CNS is exposed to physiological hypoxia, under which hypoxia-inducible factor α (HIFα) is stabilized and plays a crucial role in regulating neural development.
