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

A Neuroregenerative Human Ensheathing Glia Cell Line with Conditional Rapid Growth
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 ...

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]
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
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]
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.
