Myelin is a multilayered proteolipid membrane in the nervous system. The lipid membranes are held together by specific proteins, and here, we studied three such proteins—P0, MBP, and P2. Our experiments show that the three proteins may act in synergy at the molecular level, while they also compete for lipid membrane surface binding.

Research progress of the diagnosis of small fiber neuropathy
Small fiber neuropathy (SFN) is a kind of peripheral neuropathy in which the thinly myelinated A δ fibers and unmyelinated C fibers are predominantly affected, characterized by allodynia, analgesia, thermoanesthesia and/or autonomic nerve dysfunction ...

Retrograde tracing of breast cancer‐associated sensory neurons
Abstract Breast cancer is one of the leading causes of mortality among women. The tumour microenvironment, consisting of host cells and extracellular matrix, has been increasingly studied for its interplay with cancer cells, and the resulting effect on tumour progression.

Mind the GAPS: Glia associated with psychological stress
Abstract Glial cells are an integral component of the nervous system, performing crucial functions that extend beyond structural support, including modulation of the immune system, tissue repair, and maintaining tissue homeostasis. Recent studies have highlighted the importance of glial cells as key mediators of stress responses across different organs.

Abstract Since the early 1900s, the terms body schema and body image denoted the internal representations of the body. Bonnier's (1905, Revue Neurologique, 13, 605) schema is a conscious spatial representation of the size, shape, and position of the body, and of body parts, whose dysfunction brings about aschématia, and hypo‐, hyper‐, and paraschématia.

Disorders of gut–brain interaction through the lens of polyvagal theory
This paper introduces a metric, vagal efficiency (VE), that tracks a brainstem “switching” mechanism regulating blood pressure's effect on vagal control of the heart and gut. Potentially offering insights into gut–brain interaction disorders. Abstract This paper introduces a metric capable of tracking a hypothetical brainstem “switching” mechanism ...

Updated insights into the molecular pathogenesis of canine atopic dermatitis
Abstract Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a common and chronic inflammatory skin disease with frequent relapses. The genomics revolution has greatly contributed and revolutionised our knowledge of human AD; understanding the molecular skin fingerprint of AD and associated pathogenic immune pathways has led to preclinical assessments of several novel ...

Techniques for subretinal injections in animals
Abstract Subretinal injections are not commonly performed during clinical treatment of animals but are frequently used in laboratory animal models to assess therapeutic efficacy and safety of gene and cell therapy products. Veterinary ophthalmologists are often employed to perform the injections in the laboratory animal setting, due to knowledge of ...
