Rapid nerve conduction in the CNS is facilitated by the insulation of axons with myelin, a specialized oligodendroglial compartment distant from the cell body. Myelin is turned over and adapted throughout life; however, the molecular and cellular basis of myelin dynamics is not well understood. Hypo...

The regular structure of healthy CNS myelin sheaths requires specialized structural proteins, including septin filaments composed of subunits SEPTIN2, SEPTIN4, SEPTIN7, and SEPTIN8. Their assembly scaffolds the innermost non-compacted myelin layer as a late step of CNS myelin maturation and their di...

The transcriptional control of CNS myelin gene expression is poorly understood. Here we identify gene model 98, which we have named Myelin-gene Regulatory Factor (MRF), as a transcriptional regulator required for CNS myelination. Within the CNS, MRF is specifically expressed by postmitotic oligodend...

To assess whether the CNS myelin proteome varies within the same species, we used quantitative mass spectrometry to compare myelin purified from mouse brains at three developmental timepoints (P18, P75, 6 months), brains of male and female mice, and four CNS regions (cortex, corpus callosum, optic n...

Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is characterized not only by neuronal loss and synaptic dysfunction but also by emerging evidence of oligodendrocyte and myelin pathology. Amyloid-β (Aβ), a hallmark of AD, disrupts oligodendrocyte homeostasis through mechanisms that remain poorly understood. Here, we invest...

Human Myelin Spheres for In Vitro Oligodendrocyte Maturation, Myelination and Neurological Disease Modeling
The X-Linked Intellectual Disability gene, ZDHHC9, is important for oligodendrocyte maturation and myelin formation
Two percent of all patients with X-linked intellectual disability (XLID) exhibit loss-of-function mutations in the palmitoylating enzyme, ZDHHC91,2. One of the main anatomical deficits observed in these patients is a decrease in corpus callosum volume and a disruption of white matter integrity. We d...
