#NeuroDon, #MSchat, I'm setting up searches for central nervous system regeneration and remyelination. What keywords and sources should I use?

Previous research found more than 99.9 percent of people have the #AnWj #antigen that was missing from the 1972 patient's #blood. This antigen lives on a #myelin and #lymphocyte protein, leading the researchers to call the newly described system the #MAL blood group. #BloodType #BloodTransfusion

Scientists Identify New #BloodGroup After a 50 Year Mystery

How does #oligodendrocyte precursor cell (OPC) diversity arise? @fekrijeselimi &co show that C1ql1 expression defines an #OPC subpopulation that sis essential for production of oligodendrocytes & #myelin during postnatal brain development #PLOSBiology https://plos.io/3xS0sKE

New studies have revealed that ancient viruses, which became a part of the DNA of jawed vertebrates, played a vital role in the development of myelin. Myelin allows for swift impulse conduction without the need to increase the diameter of nerve cells. This made it possible for nerves to be packed together more closely and grow longer, which was beneficial for both larger body sizes and more complex brains.

"Notably, ESI1 triggered nuclear condensate formation of master lipid-metabolic regulators SREBP1/2, concentrating transcriptional co-activators to drive lipid/cholesterol biosynthesis. Our study highlights the potential of targeting #epigenetic silencing to enable CNS #myelin #regeneration in demyelinating diseases and #aging"
