The Fragile X Messenger Ribonucleoprotein 1 Regulates the Morphology and Maturation of Human and Rat Oligodendrocytes

open access: yesGlia, EarlyView.
Loss of FMRP impairs human and rat oligodendrocyte (OL) morphology in vitro. FMRP‐deficient OLs show impaired maturation when engrafted in hypomyelinated mice. Rat Fmr1 knockout OLs show a delay in myelin sheath formation in vivo. ABSTRACT The Fragile X Messenger Ribonucleoprotein (FMRP) is an RNA binding protein that regulates the translation of ...

Targeting Connexin 43 in Retinal Astrocytes Promotes Neuronal Survival in Glaucomatous Injury

open access: yesGlia, EarlyView.
Astrocytes play an important role in glaucoma. These cells express Cx43, which can form gap junctions and hemichannels. This study shows that Cx43 deletion in astrocytes provides neuroprotection in glaucoma, possibly through hemichannel activation. ABSTRACT Astrocytes in the retina and optic nerve head play an important role in the pathogenesis of ...

The X‐Linked Intellectual Disability Gene, ZDHHC9, Is Important for Oligodendrocyte Subtype Determination and Myelination

open access: yesGlia, EarlyView.
Zdhhc9 ablation grossly changes gene expression and myelin protein levels in CNS WM. Zdhhc9 is important for the establishment of mature oligodendrocyte subtypes. Zdhhc9 is important for axon myelination and the maintenance of myelin integrity. ABSTRACT Two percent of patients with X‐linked intellectual disability (XLID) exhibit loss‐of‐function ...

microRNA‐Mediated Regulation of Oxidative Stress in Cardiovascular Diseases

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Laboratory Analysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are the leading cause of mortality globally, often linked to oxidative stress. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) have emerged as significant regulators of oxidative stress within the cardiovascular system. Objective This review examines the complex relationship between miRNAs and oxidative stress, clarifying their ...
