Myelin is an insulating layer of lipids and proteins surrounding nerves. Myelin damage can cause problems with the nerves’ ability to send and receive electrical messages. Inflammatory disorders ...

Damage to myelin, the protective sheath surrounding nerve fibers, impairs the brain's ability to transmit signals efficiently. This condition, known as demyelination, disrupts motor function, sensory ...

The drug, LL-341070, enhances the brain's ability to repair damaged myelin— the protective sheath around nerve fibers. Damage to myelin is a hallmark of diseases like MS, as well as a natural ...

and maintaining the myelin sheath. This fundamental knowledge laid the groundwork for subsequent research on myelin repair that is happening around the world. “I am incredibly honored to receive ...

The drug, LL-341070, enhances the brain's ability to repair damaged myelin— the protective sheath around nerve fibers. Damage to myelin is a hallmark of diseases like MS, as well as a natural ...

Demyelination refers to damage to the myelin around nerves. Myelin coats many nerves in the body, but it can become damaged due to inflammation from viral infections, autoimmune diseases ...

The preliminary data presented in this manuscript seem valuable. The data are currently incomplete and there are numerous technical concerns, some of which may arise from insufficient description of ...

This important study identifies a new key factor in orchestrating the process of glial wrapping of axons in Drosophila wandering larvae. The evidence supporting the claims of the authors is convincing ...

In multiple sclerosis (MS), a person's immune system attacks the protective covering (myelin sheath) of nerve fibers in the brain and spinal cord (central nervous system). MS disease-modifying ...
