The paper develops transgenic mouse lines with red fluorescent labeling of myelin, enabling structural and functional imaging compatible with green spectral sensors.

Across three German sites and 207 analyzed mice, systemic rhNRGβ1 at 10 µg/kg did not reduce schwannoma nerve thickness or shift Schwann cell differentiation markers.

This paper identifies FABP8/PMP2 as a defining feature of human and old-world monkey CNS myelin, revealing molecular heterogeneity in myelin sheaths and its role in cholesterol enrichment.

This study identifies novel protein-protein interactions of PMP22 using optimized co-immunoprecipitation and mass spectrometry across multiple cell types.

The paper integrates single nuclei transcriptomics and spatial transcriptomics of human peripheral nerves to identify novel cell markers, reveal pan-nerve disease characteristics, and demonstrate potential for unbiased diagnostic classification.

The paper challenges the view that axonal degeneration in MS results from immune-mediated damage by proposing that myelin itself increases axonal degeneration risk under inflammatory conditions.

This study shows that ageing-related myelin dysfunction drives amyloid-beta deposition in Alzheimer's disease mouse models, suggesting myelin integrity as an upstream risk factor.
