In this image, an axon appears in green, while abnormal protein clumps (amyloid, red) lodge in tiny channels within the myelin sheath. Amyloid aggregates form filament-like strands across the ...

Kedia and colleagues found the Serpina3n oligodendrocytes had swelled with myelin basic protein (MBP), and their processes had fragmented, suggesting they were overwhelmed with myelin. Scanning ...

During this time he determined the influence of novel myelin proteins on the regulation of voltage-gated calcium channels in developing oligodendrocytes, and investigated the expression of the myelin ...

In rodents, the researchers found that the RNA transcript of RetroMyelin regulates the expression of myelin basic protein, one of the key components of myelin.

Here, we report that RNA-level expression of RNLTR12-int, a retrotransposon of retroviral origin, is essential for myelination. We show that RNLTR12-int-encoded RNA binds to the transcription factor ...

They insulated axons of all diameters in the white matter; myelin basic protein levels seemed normal. Even so, on closer inspection, McNamara found that all was not well with the myelin around FIREΔ/Δ ...

In addition, immunostaining analyses for the myelin basic protein (MBP), oligodendrocyte progenitor cells (OPCs), and anti-Olig2 were performed.

To address this, we studied the expression of myelin basic protein (MBP) in adult V1 after manipulating visual experience (MD) or enhancing plasticity (fluoxetine) and compared it with MBP changes in ...
