The differentiation of oligodendroglia from oligodendrocyte precursor cells (OPCs) to complex and extensive myelinating oligodendrocytes (OLs) is a multistep process that involves large-scale morphological changes with significant strain on the ...

Expression of a beta 1-related integrin by oligodendroglia in primary culture: evidence for a functional role in myelination. [PDF]
We have investigated the expression of integrins by rat oligodendroglia grown in primary culture and the functional role of these proteins in myelinogenesis.

Phenotype overlap in glial cell populations: astroglia, oligodendroglia and NG-2(+) cells. [PDF]
The extent to which NG-2(+) cells form a distinct population separate from astrocytes is central to understanding whether this important cell class is wholly an oligodendrocyte precursor cell (OPC) or has additional functions akin to those classically ...

Abstract Objectives Timely referral and efficient presurgical evaluation are important to optimize postoperative seizure and developmental outcomes in epilepsy surgery patients. We aimed to identify determinants of time intervals from epilepsy diagnosis to referral to specialized centers and epilepsy surgery in children with malformations of cortical ...

Acutely damaged axons are remyelinated in multiple sclerosis and experimental models of demyelination [PDF]
Remyelination is in the center of new therapies for the treatment of multiple sclerosis to resolve and improve disease symptoms and protect axons from further damage.

Tyro3 deletion is protective in experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis
Multiple sclerosis pathogenesis involves the complex interplay between the peripheral immune response and the central nervous system. Gas6 is a promising therapy to promote remyelination; however, Gas6 and its receptors (the TAM receptor family) are widely expressed in both immune cells and the central nervous system. Our study demonstrates that global

Prominin-1 (CD133) Defines Both Stem and Non-Stem Cell Populations in CNS Development and Gliomas [PDF]
Prominin-1 (CD133) is a commonly used cancer stem cell marker in central nervous system (CNS) tumors including glioblastoma (GBM). Expression of Prom1 in cancer is thought to parallel expression and function in normal stem cells.

Oligodendroglia metabolically support axons and contribute to neurodegeneration [PDF]
Oligodendroglia support axon survival and function through mechanisms independent of myelination, and their dysfunction leads to axon degeneration in several diseases. The cause of this degeneration has not been determined, but lack of energy metabolites such as glucose or lactate has been proposed. Lactate is transported exclusively by monocarboxylate

Fundamental Neurochemistry Review: Sphingolipids and Ceramides in Brain Development
Ceramides and sphingolipids in brain development and cell compartments. Ceramides and sphingolipids are known to influence multiple steps of brain development, including the formation of the neural tube, neural stem cell polarity and proliferation at the ventricular boundary, neuronal migration—for example, whilst migrating on radial glial processes ...
