Transcriptomic Profiling Unveils EDN3+ Meningeal Fibroblasts as Key Players in Sturge‐Weber Syndrome Pathogenesis

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Sturge‐Weber syndrome (SWS) is characterized by leptomeningeal vascular malformations, leading to seizures and stroke. Analysis of 119 446 brain cells from SWS patients uncovered distinct cell heterogeneity and identified an EDN3⁺ meningeal fibroblast cluster, with WNT5A emerging as a potential key driver of SWS progression and a promising therapeutic ...

Signalling through AMPA receptors on oligodendrocyte precursors promotes myelination by enhancing oligodendrocyte survival

open access: yeseLife, 2017
Myelin, made by oligodendrocytes, is essential for rapid information transfer in the central nervous system. Oligodendrocyte precursors (OPs) receive glutamatergic synaptic input from axons but how this affects their development is unclear. Murine OPs in

Isolation and Culture of Oligodendrocytes

open access: yes, 2019
Primary cultures of brain-derived rodent cells are widely used to study molecular and cellular mechanisms in neurobiology. In this chapter, we describe methods of purifying and culturing oligodendroglial cells from mouse perinatal brains. In addition, we describe methods of coculturing the purified oligodendrocytes with neurons.

Network-Based Genomic Analysis of Human Oligodendrocyte Progenitor Differentiation

open access: yesStem Cell Reports, 2017
Summary: Impaired human oligodendrocyte progenitor cell (hOPC) differentiation likely contributes to failed remyelination in multiple sclerosis. The characterization of molecular pathways that regulate hOPC differentiation will provide means to induce ...

Metabolic aspects of Neuronal – Oligodendrocytic - Astrocytic (NOA) interactions

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2013
Whereas astrocytes have been in the limelight on the metabolic glucose interaction scene for a while, oligodendrocytes are still waiting for a place.

Current Insights Into Oligodendrocyte Metabolism and Its Power to Sculpt the Myelin Landscape

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2022
Once believed to be part of the nervenkitt or “nerve glue” network in the central nervous system (CNS), oligodendroglial cells now have established roles in key neurological functions such as myelination, neuroprotection, and motor learning.

α‐Synuclein Pathology Spreads in a Midbrain–Hindbrain Assembloid Model

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A novel midbrain–hindbrain assembloid model demonstrates the spread of α‐synuclein pathology, a hallmark of Parkinson's disease, mimicking Braak's hypothesis. This model reveals how pathology propagates from the hindbrain to the midbrain, inducing synaptic changes and early signs of neuronal vulnerability. It offers an innovative platform for exploring

How Do Cells of the Oligodendrocyte Lineage Affect Neuronal Circuits to Influence Motor Function, Memory and Mood?

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2018
Oligodendrocyte progenitor cells (OPCs) are immature cells in the central nervous system (CNS) that can rapidly respond to changes within their environment by modulating their proliferation, motility and differentiation.

Gab1 mediates PDGF signaling and is essential to oligodendrocyte differentiation and CNS myelination

open access: yeseLife, 2020
Oligodendrocytes (OLs) myelinate axons and provide electrical insulation and trophic support for neurons in the central nervous system (CNS). Platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) is critical for steady-state number and differentiation of oligodendrocyte
