This study shows that myelin maintenance in adult mice affects synaptic plasticity and neuron homeostasis, while new myelin stabilizes synapses in basal dendrites.

This study shows that pericyte ablation in adult mice leads to blood-brain barrier leakage, gliosis, and behavioral changes such as reduced movement and impaired balance.

This study shows that low intensity repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (LI-rTMS) enhances remyelination by increasing myelin production from new and surviving oligodendrocytes in a mouse model of demyelination.
