Scientists at the University of Edinburgh are using the small minnow fish to study how MS damages the protective coating ...

Fibrobiologics' cell therapy CYMS101 significantly increased myelin production and promoted myelin repair in a mouse model of ...

Treatment with CNM-Au8 led to clinical improvements in relapsing-remitting MS patients that linked to signs of nerve cell ...

A recent study has found that high endurance sports, such as running, can alter and temporarily damage the brain. The study, ...

Researchers from the Netherlands Institute for Neuroscience (NIN) have discovered new potential therapeutic targets for ...

Myelin is a lipid that serves as an electrical insulator for brain cells. Prior research has shown that long-distance runners initially burn carbohydrates as they run, but when that source is ...

A fatty substance that insulates the electrical signals transmitted by nerve cells might also be a source ... of the insulating substance — called myelin — decreased in brain areas involved ...

Distribution of Ranvier nodes along myelinated axons is a critical determinant of conduction velocity, significantly influencing spike arrival timing and hence neural circuit function. The patterns of ...

A new study reveals that inflammation during pregnancy may impair neurodevelopment in infants by reducing CD11c-positive microglia—key immune cells that support brain myelination.

Oligodendrocytes, the cells that produce myelin, are known to survive low-glucose conditions by switching to fat-based metabolism, supporting nearby neurons in the process. MWF maps averaged from ...
