Myelin basic protein is an RNA chaperone in microglial nuclear retro-transport

Guy Lam, Zhaoyang Xu, Adrien M. Vaquie, Stavros Vagionitis, Michael Perry, Omar de Faria, Georgios Solomou, John H. Stockley, Gemma C. Girdler, Daniel Yamamoto, Juan A. Osés-Prieto, Qianqian Zhang, Gregory Jordan, Laura R. Morcom, Jacob M. Stillman, , David H. Rowitch

The paper identifies myelin basic protein (MBP) as an RNA chaperone that facilitates microglial nuclear import of myelin RNA, with implications for multiple sclerosis pathology.

Constitutive DREADD signalling modulates oligodendrocyte precursor cell bioelectrical membrane properties and fate

Yasmine Kamen, Stavros Vagionitis, Omar de Faria, Ragnhildur Thóra Káradóttir

This study shows that constitutive DREADD signalling in oligodendrocyte precursor cells alters bioelectrical properties and fate, highlighting a confound in using DREADDs in small cells.

Clusters of neuronal Neurofascin prefigure node of Ranvier position along single axons

Stavros Vagionitis, Franziska Auer, Yan Chun Xiao, Rafael Almeida, David Anthony Lyons, Tim Czopka

The paper shows that clusters of Neurofascin A on axons predict node of Ranvier positions before myelination, independent of myelin sheath growth.
