Mechanisms involved in the remyelinating effect of sildenafil [PDF]
Remyelination occurs in demyelinated lesions in multiple sclerosis (MS) and pharmacological treatments that enhance this process will critically impact the long term functional outcome in the disease.

The Relationship Between Inflammation and Central Nervous System in Multiple Sclerosis
ABSTRACT Aim Multiple sclerosis is an autoimmune demyelination disease that is seen especially in the young population and has a progressive course, causing motor, sensory, and cognitive deficits. In the literature, the pathogenesis of MS disease and the interconnection between the immune and central nervous system in the disease have not been fully ...

Since SARM1 mutations have been identified in human neurological disease, SARM1 inhibition has become an attractive therapeutic strategy to preserve axons in a variety of disorders of the peripheral (PNS) and central nervous system (CNS). While SARM1 has

Astroglial-axonal interactions during early stages of myelination in mixed cultures using in vitro and ex vivo imaging techniques [PDF]
<b>Background</b><p></p> Myelination is a very complex process that requires the cross talk between various neural cell types.

Oligodendrocytes: biology and pathology [PDF]
Oligodendrocytes are the myelinating cells of the central nervous system (CNS). They are the end product of a cell lineage which has to undergo a complex and precisely timed program of proliferation, migration, differentiation, and myelination to finally produce the insulating sheath of axons.

Lessons Learned: Quality Analysis of Optical Coherence Tomography in Neuromyelitis Optica
ABSTRACT Introduction Optical coherence tomography (OCT)‐derived retina measurements are markers for neuroaxonal visual pathway status. High‐quality OCT scans are essential for reliable measurements, but their acquisition is particularly challenging in eyes with severe visual impairment, as often observed in neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorders ...

Mutation of pescadillo disrupts oligodendrocyte formation in zebrafish.
BackgroundIn vertebrates, the myelin sheath is essential for efficient propagation of action potentials along the axon shaft. Oligodendrocytes are the cells of the central nervous system that create myelin sheaths.

A novel inhibitor of p75-neurotrophin receptor improves functional outcomes in two models of traumatic brain injury. [PDF]
The p75 neurotrophin receptor is important in multiple physiological actions including neuronal survival and neurite outgrowth during development, and after central nervous system injury.

Sleep and Oligodendrocyte Functions [PDF]
Transcriptomic studies have revealed that the brains of sleeping and awake animals differ significantly at the molecular level, with hundreds of brain transcripts changing their expression across behavioral states. However, it was unclear how sleep affects specific cells types, such as oligodendrocytes, which make myelin in the healthy brain and in ...

Centenary of the oligodendrocyte
“At the banquet of medicine, [histology] is the guest of honor, who eats little—aloof, mysterious—to whom all listen, yet whom very few understand.”1 For Pío del Río-Hortega (Spain, 1882–Argentina, 1945), histology blended the cold and factual with the dynamic, romantic artistry that brought the subject to light.
