Nature Reviews Neuroscience, 2006 Oligodendrocyte precursors first arise in a restricted ventral part of the embryonic spinal cord and migrate laterally and dorsally from there. Later, secondary sources develop in the dorsal cord. Normally, the ventrally-derived precursors compete with and suppress their dorsal counterparts.

GluA2 overexpression in oligodendrocyte progenitors promotes postinjury oligodendrocyte regeneration [PDF]
Cell Reports, 2021 Oligodendrocyte precursor cells (OPCs) are essential for developmental myelination and oligodendrocyte regeneration after CNS injury. These progenitors express calcium-permeable AMPA receptors (AMPARs) and form direct synapses with neurons throughout the CNS, but the roles of this signaling are unclear.

GDE2-Dependent Activation of Canonical Wnt Signaling in Neurons Regulates Oligodendrocyte Maturation
Cell Reports, 2020 Summary: Neurons and oligodendrocytes communicate to regulate oligodendrocyte development and ensure appropriate axonal myelination. Here, we show that Glycerophosphodiester phosphodiesterase 2 (GDE2) signaling underlies a neuronal pathway that promotes ...

Autophagy collaborates with apoptosis pathways to control oligodendrocyte number
Cell Reports, 2023 Summary: Oligodendrocytes are the sole myelin-producing cells in the central nervous system. Oligodendrocyte number is tightly controlled across diverse brain regions to match local axon type and number, yet the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. Here,

Network-Based Genomic Analysis of Human Oligodendrocyte Progenitor Differentiation
Stem 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 ...

OLIG2 regulates lncRNAs and its own expression during oligodendrocyte lineage formation
BMC Biology, 2021 Background Oligodendrocytes, responsible for axon ensheathment, are critical for central nervous system (CNS) development, function, and diseases. OLIG2 is an important transcription factor (TF) that acts during oligodendrocyte development and performs ...

Cells, 2023 Oligodendrocyte development is accompanied by defined changes in the state of chromatin that are brought about by chromatin remodeling complexes. Many such remodeling complexes exist, but only a few have been studied for their impact on oligodendrocytes ...

Induced Stem Cells as a Novel Multiple Sclerosis Therapy. [PDF]
, 2016 Stem cell replacement is providing hope for many degenerative diseases that lack effective therapeutic methods including multiple sclerosis (MS), an inflammatory demyelinating disease of the central nervous system. Transplantation of neural stem cells or

The immunomodulatory oligodendrocyte [PDF]
Brain Research, 2016 Oligodendrocytes, the myelinating glial cells of the central nervous system (CNS), are due to their high specialization and metabolic needs highly vulnerable to various insults. This led to a general view that oligodendrocytes are defenseless victims during brain damage such as occurs in acute and chronic CNS inflammation.

FSD-C10, a Fasudil derivative, promotes neuroregeneration through indirect and direct mechanisms. [PDF]
, 2017 FSD-C10, a Fasudil derivative, was shown to reduce severity of experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE), an animal model of multiple sclerosis (MS), through the modulation of the immune response and induction of neuroprotective molecules in the ...
