Brain region dependent molecular signatures and myelin repair following chronic demyelination
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is the most prevalent demyelinating disease of the central nervous system, characterized by myelin destruction, axonal degeneration, and progressive loss of neurological functions.

Induced Stem Cells as a Novel Multiple Sclerosis Therapy. [PDF]
Stem cell replacement is providing hope for many degenerative diseases that lack effective therapeutic methods including multiple sclerosis (MS), an inflammatory demyelinating disease of the central nervous system. Transplantation of neural stem cells or

FSD-C10, a Fasudil derivative, promotes neuroregeneration through indirect and direct mechanisms. [PDF]
FSD-C10, a Fasudil derivative, was shown to reduce severity of experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE), an animal model of multiple sclerosis (MS), through the modulation of the immune response and induction of neuroprotective molecules in the ...

Klotho pathways, myelination disorders, neurodegenerative diseases, and epigenetic drugs [PDF]
In this review we outline a rationale for identifying neuroprotectants aimed at inducing endogenous Klotho activity and expression, which is epigenetic action, by definition. Such an approach should promote remyelination and/or stimulate myelin repair by

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.

A New Model of Cuprizone-Mediated Demyelination/Remyelination
In the central nervous system, demyelinating diseases, such as multiple sclerosis, result in devastating long-term neurologic damage, in part because of the lack of effective remyelination in the adult human brain.

Exogenous Leukemia Inhibitory Factor Stimulates Oligodendrocyte Progenitor Cell Proliferation and Enhances Hippocampal Remyelination [PDF]
New CNS neurons and glia are generated throughout adulthood from endogenous neural stem and progenitor cells. These progenitors can respond to injury, but their ability to proliferate, migrate, differentiate, and survive is usually insufficient to ...

Galectin-1 in myelin repair [PDF]
Galectin-1 (Gal-1) is a member of a highly conserved family of animal lectins which binds to the common disaccharide [Galβ(1-4)-GlcNAc] on both N- and O-glycans decorating cell surface glycoconjugates.

Osteopontin (OPN) is a key immunoregulator in the autoimmune-mediated demyelinating disease multiple sclerosis. OPN may also play a role in the remyelination since it is 1) a ligand for αV integrins, several of which regulate the properties of the ...

Mesenchymal Stem Cells Promote Oligodendroglial Differentiation in Hippocampal Slice Cultures [PDF]
We have previously shown that soluble factors derived from mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) induce oligodendrogenic fate and differentiation in adult rat neural progenitors (NPCs) in vitro.
