The 7th symposium Current Topics in Myelin Research will take place 25-27 February 2027 in Kassel-Wilhelmshöhe (Germany). Purpose of the meeting This symposium brings together scientists interested in...

Axon diameter is important for action potential conduction speed, but what molecular pathways influence this neuronal property? This study reports a high-resolution imaging-based chemical screening pi...

Arlt et al. describe a novel autoimmune neuropathy (‘incisuropathy’) in three patients initially thought to have an ALS variant. All had antibodies targeti

Myelin damage is a hallmark of several neurological disorders, but how it occurs remains to be fully understood. In this study, we found that early damage in zebrafish and rodent demyelination models ...

CDC42-effector proteins 1/2 are present in CNS myelin. They facilitate the higher order structure of myelin septin filaments. Their loss impairs septin-dependent scaffolding of myelin. Myelin o...

Myelination of CNS axons requires oligodendrocytes to undergo extensive morphological changes by producing large amounts of myelin membrane with defined protein composition and structure. The formatio...
