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

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.

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.

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.

Exosomes and their roles in the chemoresistance of pancreatic cancer

open access: yesCancer Medicine, Volume 11, Issue 24, Page 4979-4988, December 2022., 2022
Despite the development of multiple promising chemotherapeutic agents as recommended first‐line treatment for PC, the therapeutic efficacy is largely limited by unwanted drug resistance.Exploring the relation between exosomes and chemoresistance may be conducive to understanding molecular mechanisms and taking effective measures to reduce the ...

On a chemotaxis model with nonlinear diffusion modelling multiple sclerosis [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2023
We investigated existence of global weak solutions for a system of chemotaxis type with nonlinear degenerate diffusion, arising in modelling Multiple Sclerosis disease. The model consists of three equations describing the evolution of macrophages ($m$), cytokine ($c$) and apoptotic oligodendrocytes ($d$). The main novelty in our work is the presence of

Cell morphologies in the nervous system: Glia steal the limelight

open access: yesJournal of Comparative Neurology, Volume 531, Issue 3, Page 338-343, February 2023., 2023
Diversity of digitally reconstructed glia (astrocytes, oligodendrocytes, microglia, and other types) freely available for download and reuse at NeuroMorpho.Org in terms of experimental provenance, animal species, anatomical region, cell type, tracing platform, and more.

A physical perspective to understand myelin. I. Peters quadrant mystery [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2021
In the development of oligodendrocytes in the central nervous systems, the inner and outer tongue of the myelin sheath tend to be located within the same quadrant, which was named as Peters quadrant mystery. In this study, we conduct in silico investigations to explore the possible mechanisms underlying the Peters quadrant mystery.

Projected $t$-SNE for batch correction [PDF]

open access: yesBioinformatics, 2020, 1-6, 2019
Biomedical research often produces high-dimensional data confounded by batch effects such as systematic experimental variations, different protocols and subject identifiers. Without proper correction, low-dimensional representation of high-dimensional data might encode and reproduce the same systematic variations observed in the original data, and ...

Accumulation of 8,9-unsaturated sterols drives oligodendrocyte formation and remyelination

open access: yesNature, 2018
Regeneration of myelin is mediated by oligodendrocyte progenitor cells—an abundant stem cell population in the central nervous system (CNS) and the principal source of new myelinating oligodendrocytes. Loss of myelin-producing oligodendrocytes in the CNS
