MicroRNA-23a promotes myelination in the central nervous system. [PDF]
Demyelinating disorders including leukodystrophies are devastating conditions that are still in need of better understanding, and both oligodendrocyte differentiation and myelin synthesis pathways are potential avenues for developing treatment ...

Oligodendroglia: metabolic supporters of neurons [PDF]
Oligodendrocytes are glial cells that populate the entire CNS after they have differentiated from oligodendrocyte progenitor cells. From birth onward, oligodendrocytes initiate wrapping of neuronal axons with a multilamellar lipid structure called myelin.

Olig2/Plp-positive progenitor cells give rise to Bergmann glia in the cerebellum. [PDF]
NG2 (nerve/glial antigen2)-expressing cells represent the largest population of postnatal progenitors in the central nervous system and have been classified as oligodendroglial progenitor cells, but the fate and function of these cells remain ...

Degeneration and impaired regeneration of gray matter oligodendrocytes in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. [PDF]
Oligodendrocytes associate with axons to establish myelin and provide metabolic support to neurons. In the spinal cord of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) mice, oligodendrocytes downregulate transporters that transfer glycolytic substrates to neurons ...

Astrocyte MCT1 Expression Does Not Contribute to the Axonal Degenerative Phenotype Observed With Ubiquitous MCT1 Depletion. [PDF]
Loss of astrocytic MCT1 does not cause late onset neurodegeneration. As ubiquitous MCT1 deletion causes axonal degeneration, oligodendrocytes and potentially other cells are more prominent drivers of MCT1‐mediated metabolic support of neurons. ABSTRACT We recently reported that the loss of oligodendrocyte metabolic support through the lactate and ...

FAS-dependent cell death in α-synuclein transgenic oligodendrocyte models of multiple system atrophy [PDF]
Multiple system atrophy is a parkinsonian neurodegenerative disorder. It is cytopathologically characterized by accumulation of the protein p25α in cell bodies of oligodendrocytes followed by accumulation of aggregated α-synuclein in so-called glial ...

Ion activities and potassium uptake mechanisms of glial cells in guinea-pig olfactory cortex slices. [PDF]
1. Double-barrelled ion-sensitive micro-electrodes were used to measure changes in the intracellular activities of K+, Na+ and Cl- (aiK, aiNa, aiCl) in glial cells of slices from guinea-pig olfactory cortex during repetitive stimulation of the lateral ...

Paramagnetic‐rim lesions are a novel diagnostic marker in multiple sclerosis (MS) and are associated with poor prognosis due to their link with chronic inflammation and disease progression. Analyzing 46 postmortem MS cases, researchers found no iron rims in 67 white matter and 85 grey matter spinal cord lesions, despite most being active.

Our findings show early increased Netrin‐4 in mice with PWMI boosts angiogenesis and OPCs proliferation. Later, high levels hinder OPCs differentiation into mature cells, impairing myelination. It may act by stimulating ET‐1 secretion. Abstract Perinatal hypoxia–ischemia is a leading cause of preterm white matter injury (PWMI), yet mechanisms ...

Extraneural Metastasis in Oligodendroglioma: A Comprehensive Review and Outcome Analysis of 90 Cases
Oligodendroglioma liver metastasis. ABSTRACT Extraneural metastasis in oligodendroglioma is a rare and poorly characterized event. We report a case whereby liver and bone metastasis occurred 19 years after diagnosis. Next generation sequencing on brain and liver oligodendroglioma showed several common mutations and a few unique ones to each organ.
