In vivo conversion of astrocytes into oligodendrocyte lineage cells with transcription factor Sox10; Promise for myelin repair in multiple sclerosis. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2018
Recent studies demonstrate that astroglial cells can be directly converted into functional neurons or oligodendrocytes. Here, we report that a single transcription factor Sox10 could reprogram astrocytes into oligodendrocyte-like cells, in vivo.

Stalled oligodendrocyte differentiation in IDH-mutant gliomas

open access: yesGenome Medicine, 2023
Background Roughly 50% of adult gliomas harbor isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) mutations. According to the 2021 WHO classification guideline, these gliomas are diagnosed as astrocytomas, harboring no 1p19q co-deletion, or oligodendrogliomas, harboring ...

Circulating transforming growth factor-β1 facilitates remyelination in the adult central nervous system

open access: yeseLife, 2019
Oligodendrocyte maturation is necessary for functional regeneration in the CNS; however, the mechanisms by which the systemic environment regulates oligodendrocyte maturation is unclear. We found that Transforming growth factor (TGF)-β1, which is present

Transplantation of Ciliary Neurotrophic Factor-Expressing Adult Oligodendrocyte Precursor Cells Promotes Remyelination and Functional Recovery after SpinalCord Injury [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Demyelination contributes to the dysfunction after traumatic spinal cord injury (SCI). We explored whether the combination of neurotrophic factors and transplantation of adult rat spinal cord oligodendrocyte precursor cells (OPCs) could enhance ...

Axin2 as regulatory and therapeutic target in newborn brain injury and remyelination. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Permanent damage to white matter tracts, comprising axons and myelinating oligodendrocytes, is an important component of brain injuries of the newborn that cause cerebral palsy and cognitive disabilities, as well as multiple sclerosis in adults. However,

mTOR: A Link from the Extracellular Milieu to Transcriptional Regulation of Oligodendrocyte Development

open access: yesASN Neuro, 2013
Oligodendrocyte development is controlled by numerous extracellular signals that regulate a series of transcription factors that promote the differentiation of oligodendrocyte progenitor cells to myelinating cells in the central nervous system.

Mature and Myelinating Oligodendrocytes Are Specifically Vulnerable to Mild Fluid Percussion Injury in Mice

open access: yesNeurotrauma Reports, 2023
Myelin loss and oligodendrocyte death are well documented in patients with traumatic brain injury (TBI), as well as in experimental animal models after moderate-to-severe TBI.

Human induced pluripotent stem cells differentiation into oligodendrocyte progenitors and transplantation in a rat model of optic chiasm demyelination. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2011
BACKGROUND: This study aims to differentiate human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs) into oligodendrocyte precursors and assess their recovery potential in a demyelinated optic chiasm model in rats.

The development of a ε-polycaprolactone (PCL) scaffold for CNS repair [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Potential treatment strategies for the repair of spinal cord injury (SCI) currently favour a combinatorial approach incorporating several factors, including exogenous cell transplantation and biocompatible scaffolds. The use of scaffolds for bridging the

Folate Metabolism Regulates Oligodendrocyte Survival and Differentiation by Modulating AMPKα Activity

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
Folate, an essential micronutrient, is a critical cofactor in one-carbon metabolism for many cellular pathways including DNA synthesis, metabolism and maintenance.
