Myelin Oligodendrocyte Antibody Disease - Cleveland Clinic
A: Myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein antibody disorders (MOGAD) is an idiopathic, inflammatory, demyelinating disease of the central nervous system (CNS). MOG is a glycoprotein uniquely expressed in oligodendrocytes in the CNS. MOG antibodies were originally thought to be involved in multiple sclerosis (MS), but subsequent studies found it to ...

Myelin basic protein [Mass/volume] in Cerebral spinal fluid
2638-5 Myelin basic protein [Mass/volume] in Cerebral spinal fluid Active Part Description. LP14685-9 Myelin basic protein Myelin basic protein (MBP) is important in the process of myelination of nerves in the central nervous system (CNS). MBP was initially sequenced in 1979 after isolation from myelin membranes.

Myelin protein zero
Myelin protein zero holds together the myelin sheath by participating in homotypic interactions with other myelin protein zero proteins. Myelin protein zero's extracellular domain binds to the myelin sphingolipid membrane and holds together myelin layers using homotypic interactions with wikipedia.org

Are Schwann cells the sole source of myelination in PNS? Are Schwann cells the only source of myelin for axons in the peripheral nervous system, or are there other neuroglia or other processes that result in myelinati...
Schwann cells seem to be the most common type of glial cells outside of CNS, and **the myelinating Schwann cells are the only known source of myelin in

Myelin proteolipid protein
Myelin proteolipid protein (PLP or lipophilin) is the major myelin protein from the central nervous system (CNS). It plays an important role in the formation or maintenance of the multilamellar structure of myelin. wikipedia.org

Why myelin sheat does not cover the whole axon? Is there an optimal lenght for myelin sheats to be effective and lead potential across the nerve cell? This has always bugged me.
The nodes of Ranvier (the gaps between myelin sheath segments) speed up the action potential because the electric current can jump from node to node (or If the myelin covered the entire axon, the signal wouldn't have the gaps to speed up the signal.

Myelin incisure
Myelin incisures (also known as Schmidt-Lanterman clefts, Schmidt-Lanterman incisures, clefts of Schmidt-Lanterman, segments of Lanterman, medullary segments Myelination refers to the insulation of an axon with concentric surrounding layers of lipid membrane (myelin) produced by Schwann cells. wikipedia.org

Myelin regulatory factor
Myelin regulatory factor (MyRF), also known as myelin gene regulatory factor (MRF), is a protein that in humans is encoded by the MYRF gene. It has been shown to be critical for the maintenance of myelin by these cells. wikipedia.org

What is the function of nodes of Ranvier in axons? In a neuroscience class I'm taking, it was explained that myelin covers axons in sections, the uncovered sections are called nodes of Ranvier, and signals propagate m...
So if the whole axon were covered with myelin, action potentials wouldn't reach their target.

How does toluene inhalation damage the brain? We just had a discussion about toluene abuse. It is known, that people inhaling toluene for a long time have significant brain damage, including decreased intelligence. I...
> After crossing the blood-brain barrier, toluene, along with other volatile anesthetic agents, had been previously thought to inhibit neuronal transmission by causing a change in membrane or membrane protein conformation. Recent research has shown that interactions with several key brain neurotrans...
