Dorsal spinal cord neuroepithelium generates astrocytes but not oligodendrocytes
There is evidence that oligodendrocytes in the spinal cord are derived from a restricted part of the ventricular zone near the floor plate. An alternative view is that oligodendrocytes are generated from all parts of the ventricular zone.

Neuron–glia communication contributes to the fine-tuning of synaptic functions. Oligodendrocytes near synapses detect and respond to neuronal activity, but their role in synapse development and plasticity remains largely unexplored.

Oligodendrocytic injury by oxidative stress can lead to demyelination, contributing to neurodegeneration. We investigated the mechanisms by which an antioxidant, N-acetylcysteine (NAC), reduces oxidative stress in murine oligodendrocytes.

Intrinsic resistance of oligodendrocytes to prion infection. [PDF]
Within the CNS, the normal form of cellular prion protein (PrP(C)) is expressed on neurons, oligodendrocytes, and astrocytes. The contribution of these cell types to prion replication and pathogenesis is unclear.

After spinal cord injury, adult microglia remain persistently activated with chronic PRMT6 (protein arginine methyltransferase 6) upregulation. Prmt6 deficiency or inhibition reestablishes microglial homeostasis and promotes a scar‐limited repairment, enhancing axonal regrowth.

Differential expression and MAL-dependent targeting of the L-MAG and S-MAG isoforms to myelin membranes [PDF]
Many degenerative diseases of the nervous system, including Multiple Sclerosis and peripheral neuropathies, are triggered by an impaired interaction between the axons and their surrounding myelin sheaths.

Organoid Brain‐Machine‐Interface Devices for Central Nervous System Repair
We envision organoid brain‐machine‐interface (Organoid‐BMI) devices as new biohybrid bidirectional communication pathways to connect the human CNS and the external world for personalized CNS repair and regeneration. ABSTRACT Central nervous system (CNS) repair and regeneration suffer from tremendous clinical challenges due to current limitations in ...

Infestation of the lacrimal sac by Rhinosporidium seeberi: A clinicopathological case report
Rhinosporidium seeberi , till recently known as a fungus, has been reclassified as a protistan parasite. It infects humans and many animal species. The authors describe a rare case of oculosporidiosis with involvement of the lacrimal sac exhibiting ...

Ramifications of microglial activation on oligodendrocytes in in vitro models of multiple sclerosis
Oligodendrocytes are the principal target of immune attack in multiple sclerosis (MS), where the immune system attacks the myelin sheath, leading to oligodendrocyte demise, compromised axonal saltatory conduction and eventually neuronal degeneration ...
