Deciphering the skeletal interoceptive circuitry to control bone homeostasis
This review introduces the skeletal interoceptive circuitry, covering the ascending signals from bone tissues to the brain (sensors), the central neural circuits that integrate this information and dispatch commands (CPU), and the descending pathways that regulate bone homeostasis (effectors).

Targeting mitochondrial dysfunction presents a potential therapeutic approach for treating spinal cord injury. We have successfully designed and synthesized a functional Se@NADH nanodrug system. This system offers neuroprotective and neuroregenerative benefits by modulating mitochondrial function and neutralizing reactive oxygen species, thereby ...

Oligodendrogenesis in Evolution, Development and Adulthood
Oligodendrocytes and myelin took shape in jawed vertebrates. During development, OPCs are originated from NSCs and then undergo differentiation into mature oligodendrocytes that supply myelin. OPCs persist in the adult CNS and continue to produce oligodendrocytes and myelin. Adaptive myelination, which fine‐tunes neural circuits in response to neuronal

A vitamin supplement for remyelination [PDF]
![Figure][1] In a control brain slice (left), most axons (red) have regained a myelin sheath (green) eight days after demyelination. But regeneration is impaired in the presence of a VDR inhibitor (right).

What Does Iron Mean to an Oligodendrocyte?
ABSTRACT Iron is essential for life and plays a key role in multiple fundamental cellular functions. The brain has the highest rate of energy consumption, and within the brain, oligodendrocytes have the highest level of oxidative metabolism per volume. Oligodendrocytes also stain the strongest for iron.

ABSTRACT Multiple sclerosis (MS) is the most common non‐infectious inflammatory CNS disease, characterized by progressive neurodegeneration and focal demyelinated lesions. Traditionally considered an autoimmune disease, MS is driven by the immune system's attack on CNS myelin, resulting in cumulative disability.

Nanomaterials for promoting axon regeneration after spinal cord injury: Mechanisms and prospects
The effects of clinical therapies for spinal cord injury (SCI) are greatly limited due to poor axon regeneration. This review systematically discusses the ability of nanomaterials (NMs) to treat SCI and the mechanism underlying their therapeutic effects. The properties of NMs that are conducive to axon regeneration after SCI are outlined.

Remyelination of regenerating axons
SummaryRemyelination depends on adult multipotent progenitor cells, called oligodendrocyte progenitor cells (OPCs) that give rise to remyelinating oligodendrocytes. With age, remyelination slows and axons remain demyelinated, rendering them vulnerable to ir‐ reversible degeneration.

High throughput remyelination [PDF]
Remyelinating compounds have been difficult to identify in part because of a dearth of suitable high throughput screening platforms. UCSF researchers have now developed an assay that can identify active compounds and have licensed it to the build-to-buy incubator company Inception 5, which has partnered with Roche.
