The laminin-411 protein is vital for the formation of the myelin membrane by oligodendrocytes, report researchers from Japan. Furthermore, the A4G47 peptide from the E8 region of laminin-411 was found ...

Abstract: The extraction of morphometric features from images of biological structures is a crucial task for the study of several diseases. Particularly, concerning neuropathies, the state of the ...

Abstract: Recently, the myelination process in neuronal circuits was shown to be adaptive, i.e. dependent on the activity of the involved neural cells. We demonstrate that this type of brain ...

The human brain remains adaptable even into adulthood alternately strengthening and weakening various neural pathways. And now, new research from Stanford Medicine scientists suggests that this ...

Scientists have found that the process of adaptive myelination, which helps the brain learn new skills, can also promote addiction to opioids. Our brains, even in adulthood, continually adapt to what ...

Scientists have uncovered a fascinating link between ancient viruses and the development of myelination, the biological process crucial for the advanced functioning of the nervous system in ...

A protein called Mfsd2a, which transports molecules that contain omega-3 fatty acids, is essential for regulating cells that make the fatty coating on nerve fibers, or myelin sheath, that’s damaged in ...

The developing preclinical model’s brain with myelinated axons (shown in green color). Scientists from Singapore have discovered the crucial role of a transporter protein, Mfsd2a, in regulating brain ...
