Diversity in autoimmunity against retinal, neuronal, and axonal antigens in acquired neuro-retinopathy.

Journal of ophthalmic inflammation and infection

Adamus G, Brown L, Schiffman J, Iannaccone A.
PMID: 21744285
J Ophthalmic Inflamm Infect. 2011 Sep;1(3):111-21. doi: 10.1007/s12348-011-0028-8. Epub 2011 Jul 10.

PURPOSE: Autoimmune retinopathies and optic neuropathies are complex disorders of the retina and the optic nerve, in which patients develop autoantibodies (AAbs) against retinal and optic nerve proteins. Autoimmunity might significantly influence the outcome of retinal and optic nerve...

Mannosylated Linear and Cyclic Single Amino Acid Mutant Peptides Using a Small 10 Amino Acid Linker Constitute Promising Candidates Against Multiple Sclerosis.

Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a serious autoimmune demyelinating disease leading to loss of neurological function. The design and synthesis of various altered peptide ligands of immunodominant epitopes of myelin proteins to alter the autoimmune response, is a promising therapeutic...

Selective loss of myelin proteins during autolysis.

Fishman MA, Trotter JL, Agrawal HC.
PMID: 24272052
Neurochem Res. 1977 Jun;2(3):247-57. doi: 10.1007/BF00969355.

Rat brains allowed to autolyze in situ for 12 h selectively lost myelin proteins. Basic proteins are markedly decreased, but DM-20 (1) and proteolipid proteins also are lost from the myelin of developing and mature rat brain. At room...

Neurotrophin-4 induces myelin protein zero expression in cultured Schwann cells via the TrkB/PI3K/Akt/mTORC1 pathway.

Animal cells and systems

Guo W, Li Y, Sun C, Duan HQ, Liu S, Xu YQ, Feng SQ.
PMID: 30460055
Anim Cells Syst (Seoul). 2017 Feb 21;21(2):84-92. doi: 10.1080/19768354.2017.1289980. eCollection 2017.

Myelin formation during peripheral nervous system development, as well as myelin repair after injury and in disease, requires multiple intrinsic and extrinsic signals. Neurotrophin-4 (NT-4) is a member of the neurotrophin family, which regulates the development of neuronal networks...

Endoplasmic Reticulum Protein Quality Control Failure in Myelin Disorders.

Frontiers in molecular neuroscience

Volpi VG, Touvier T, D'Antonio M.
PMID: 28101003
Front Mol Neurosci. 2017 Jan 04;9:162. doi: 10.3389/fnmol.2016.00162. eCollection 2016.

Reaching the correct three-dimensional structure is crucial for the proper function of a protein. The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is the organelle where secreted and transmembrane proteins are synthesized and folded. To guarantee high fidelity of protein synthesis and maturation...

The Influence of Neuron-Extrinsic Factors and Aging on Injury Progression and Axonal Repair in the Central Nervous System.

Frontiers in cell and developmental biology

Sutherland TC, Geoffroy CG.
PMID: 32269994
Front Cell Dev Biol. 2020 Mar 25;8:190. doi: 10.3389/fcell.2020.00190. eCollection 2020.

In the aging western population, the average age of incidence for spinal cord injury (SCI) has increased, as has the length of survival of SCI patients. This places great importance on understanding SCI in middle-aged and aging patients. Axon...

Herpesviruses and the hidden links to Multiple Sclerosis neuropathology.

Journal of neuroimmunology

Jakhmola S, Upadhyay A, Jain K, Mishra A, Jha HC.
PMID: 34174587
J Neuroimmunol. 2021 Sep 15;358:577636. doi: 10.1016/j.jneuroim.2021.577636. Epub 2021 Jun 19.

Herpesviruses like Epstein-Barr virus, human herpesvirus (HHV)-6, HHV-1, VZV, and human endogenous retroviruses, have an age-old clinical association with multiple sclerosis (MS). MS is an autoimmune disease of the nervous system wherein the myelin sheath deteriorates. The most popular...

Blocking Kallikrein 6 promotes developmental myelination.

Glia

Yoon H, Triplet EM, Simon WL, Choi CI, Kleppe LS, De Vita E, Miller AK, Scarisbrick IA.
PMID: 34626143
Glia. 2022 Mar;70(3):430-450. doi: 10.1002/glia.24100. Epub 2021 Oct 09.

Kallikrein related peptidase 6 (Klk6) is a secreted serine protease highly expressed in oligodendrocytes and implicated in demyelinating conditions. To gain insights into the significance of Klk6 to oligodendrocyte biology, we investigated the impact of global Klk6 gene knockout...

Clemastine improves electrophysiologic and histomorphometric changes through promoting myelin repair in a murine model of compression neuropathy.

Scientific reports

Lee JI, Park JW, Lee KJ, Lee DH.

Sci Rep. 2021 Oct 22;11(1):20886. doi: 10.1038/s41598-021-00389-1.

Compression neuropathies are common and debilitating conditions that result in variable functional recovery after surgical decompression. Recent drug repurposing studies have verified that clemastine promotes functional recovery through enhancement of myelin repair in demyelinating disease. We investigated the utility...
