Johns Hopkins scientists say they have used 3D imaging, special microscopes and artificial intelligence (AI) programs to construct new maps of mouse brains showing a precise location of more than 10 ...

Millions of myelin-producing cells have been mapped in the mouse brain, advancing our understanding of nervous system ...

Researchers mapped myelin-making cells in mice, showing some brain regions recover better after myelin damage.

Researchers say study identifies location of oligodendrocytes in the brain, and integrates information about gene expression and the structural features of neurons.

In experiments with mice, Johns Hopkins Medicine scientists report new evidence that precursors of myelin-producing cells—one of the few brain cell types that continue to be produced in the adult ...

Micro RNAs (miRNAs) are short non-coding RNAs that regulate gene expression at posttranscriptional level by complementary binding to 3’UTR regions of target genes. Modulation of gene expression by ...

Osteocalcin (OCN) is a multifunctional bone-derived hormone that modulates numerous physiological activities. OCN can cross the blood brain barrier (BBB) and thus play critical roles in neuronal and ...

Demyelinating diseases, including multiple sclerosis (MS) and Charcot-Marie-Tooth (CMT) disease, present a substantial and escalating burden. | Demyelinating diseases, including multiple sclerosis (MS ...

Spinal cord injuries result from a blunt or penetrating trauma. This is generally caused by accidents that occur during sport activities or when driving. Injuries of the spinal cord can lead to ...

The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) precipitates neurological symptoms for which the triggering of autoantibody diseases in the host could be a causative factor. Myelin Oligodendrocyte ...
