The brain (central nervous system, CNS) of higher vertebrates can be roughly divided into 4 parts (note: the PNS (= peripheral nervous system) is not part of this description):Cerebrum Including cerebral cortex, basal ganglia (often called the striatum), olfactory bulb, etc. CerebellumIncluding...
Most interestingly, we showed antibody-reactivity in two of six seronegative NMOSD, six of 12 probable AIE/PNS, and one of 13 OIND. Flow cytometry using hiPSC-derived CNS cells or PBMC-detected antibody binding in 13 versus zero patients, respectively, establishing the s...
CNS myelinationOligodendroglial deathOligodendroglial regenerationSchwann cellsPNS myelinationCentral nervous system (CNS) is composed of two major cell types: neuron and glia. Astrocytes and oligodendrocytes belong to the latter category. Astrocytes, through an intricate network surrounding blood vessels, ...
What neuroglia type forms the myelin sheath in the PNS? Why some axons are not insulated by the myelin sheath? Are axons just another name for synapses? Do unipolar neurons have dendrites? How do afferent neurons enter the spinal cord?

Using clonal density cultures of cortical stem cells, we found that soluble factors secreted by neurons and astrocytes markedly promoted differentiation of CNS stem cells. Interestingly, neuron-derived factors tended to drive the stem cells to differentiate into neurons, while astrocyte-derived factors ...
Exon 4a is considered to be restricted to the PNS and projecting neurons and absent from the CNS.46,77 However, low-level astrocyte-specific expression may have precluded its detection to date. Very little is known about the function of exon 4a, although it may provide additional stabilization...
The analysis of specific differences in the molecular responses to axotomy of supporting cells in the vicinity of PNS and CNS axons may help to elucidate the mechanisms that limit the ability of central axons to regenerate.doi:10.1007/978-3-642-71381-1_38H. W. Müller...
Glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) is a principal intermediate filament in mature astrocytes of the central nervous system (CNS), and the regulation of GFAP transcription has not been well understood yet. In the present study, we reported paired box 3 protein (Pax3) as a novel regulator ...
Satellite glial cells (SGCs) in the dorsal root and trigeminal ganglia of the peripheral nervous system (PNS) and astrocytes in the central nervous system (CNS) express similar molecular markers and are protective under physiological conditions. They also serve similar functions in the genesis and ...
