          Mechanisms Identified to Restore Myelin Sheaths After Injury or in Multiple Sclerosis

          eEF1a1 activated by acetylation prevents remyelination, but if the protein is deactivated by deacetylation, myelin sheaths can be rebuilt. The findings shed light on the process of remyelination and could provide avenues of treatment for multiple sclerosis, and other conditions associated with demyelination.

          Stem cells from hair follicles have potential to repair myelin sheath in mice

          Melanocyte stem cells from human hair follicles that carry CD34 have the ability to turn into glial cells. The CD34+ stem cells can regenerate myelin, both on neurons and in mouse models with a genetic defect that prevents the formation of healthy myelin sheaths. The findings could have positive implications for the treatment of demyelinating diseases, such as Multiple Sclerosis.

          Study shows promise in repairing damaged myelin

          A study in mouse models of multiple sclerosis demonstrates a compound called sobetirome promotes remyelination, and a derivative of the compound can penetrate the blood-brain barrier to enable a tenfold increase in infiltration to the CNS. Researchers are confident their research will translate from mice into humans, providing a new avenue of treatment for MS.
