Our objective was to follow the course of a dysmyelinating disease followed by partial
recovery in transgenic mice using non-invasive high-resolution (117× 117× 70 μm) magnetic …

The role of myelin in determining the magnetic resonance (MR) characterization of the
central nervous system (CNS) was investigated in unmyelinated brains of normal fetal mice …

The myelin basic protein (MBP) gene encodes two families of proteins, the classic MBP
constituents of myelin and the golli-MBPs, the function of which is less well understood. In …

The progress of myelination in the brain was evaluated by visualization of grey/white matter
differentiation on magnetic resonance (MR) images and quantitative analysis of MR data. In …

Central nervous system hypomyelination is a feature common to anumber of transgenic (Tg)
mouse lines that express a variety of unrelated exogenous (ie non–central nervous system) …

Since myelin gene expression is suppressed during active myelination of the
undernourished brain, this study was designed to determine the effects of undernourishment …

Axonal tracing is useful for detecting optic nerve injury and regeneration, but many
commonly used methods cannot be used to observe axoplasmic flow and synaptic …

An ontogenetic survey of the basic protein of myelin, common to both central and peripheral
nervous systems, was carried out on normal C57B1 and five dysmyelinating mutant mice …

Recently, several in vitro studies have shown that the golli-myelin basic proteins regulate
Ca2+ homoeostasis in OPCs (oligodendrocyte precursor cells) and immature OLs …

Myelin has pronounced effects upon the morphology, function, and growth of axons in the
mammalian CNS. Consequently, oligodendrocyte development and myelination have been …
