Antimicrobial responses of peripheral and central nervous system glia against Staphylococcus aureus

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
Staphylococcus aureus infections of the central nervous system are serious and can be fatal. S. aureus is commonly present in the nasal cavity, and after injury to the nasal epithelium it can rapidly invade the brain via the olfactory nerve.

Non thermal effects of radiofrequency electromagnetic field exposure on neural cells [PDF]

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2020
The non-thermal mechanisms, underlying the damage induced on human cells by radiofrequency electromagnetic fields (RF-EMFs), are still unclear and only few studies reported about the effect of RFEMFs on self-renewal of neural progenitor cells.

Olfactory Ensheathing Cells for Spinal Cord Injury: The Cellular Superpowers for Nerve Repair

open access: yesNeuroglia, 2022
Neurotrauma injuries are notoriously difficult to deal with both clinically as well as experimentally, as the cellular and molecular events ensuing after injury complicate the neuroinflammatory processes.

Study of the glial cytoarchitecture of the developing olfactory bulb of a shark using immunochemical markers of radial glia

open access: yesBrain Structure and Function, 2022
During development of the olfactory bulb (OB), glial cells play key roles in axonal guiding/targeting, glomerular formation and synaptic plasticity.

A Neuroregenerative Human Ensheathing Glia Cell Line with Conditional Rapid Growth

open access: yesCell Transplantation, 2011
Ensheathing glia have been demonstrated to have neuroregenerative properties but this cell type from human sources has not been extensively studied because tissue samples are not easily obtained, primary cultures are slow growing, and human cell lines ...

Induced Neurons for Disease Modeling and Repair: A Focus on Non-fibroblastic Cell Sources in Direct Reprogramming

open access: yesFrontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2021
Direct cellular reprogramming exhibits distinct advantages over reprogramming from an induced pluripotent stem cell intermediate. These include a reduced risk of tumorigenesis and the likely preservation of epigenetic data.

Immortalized olfactory ensheathing glia promote axonal regeneration of rat retinal ganglion neurons [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Neurochemistry, 2003
AbstractOlfactory bulb ensheathing glia (OEG) have attracted special attention during the last few years because of their unique properties in promoting regeneration of adult mammalian central nervous system (CNS) components. However the molecular and cellular characteristics responsible for this capacity remain to be revealed.

The Potential Therapeutic Applications of Olfactory Ensheathing Cells in Regenerative Medicine

open access: yesCell Transplantation, 2014
Olfactory ensheathing cells (OECs) are unique glia cells restricted to the primary olfactory system including the olfactory mucosa, olfactory nerve, and the outer nerve layer of the olfactory bulb.

Low-dose curcumin stimulates proliferation, migration and phagocytic activity of olfactory ensheathing cells. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
One of the promising strategies for neural repair therapies is the transplantation of olfactory ensheathing cells (OECs) which are the glial cells of the olfactory system.

Fibroblast growth factor signaling instructs ensheathing glia wrapping of Drosophila olfactory glomeruli

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2017
Significance This research reports that reciprocal interactions between Drosophila olfactory neurons and ensheathing glia mediate the formation of neuronal compartments, groups of synapses that are packed into discrete structures called “glomeruli” that ...
