Myelination of regenerating optic nerve axons occurs in conjunction with an increase of the oligodendrocyte precursor cell population in the adult mice
2021, Brain Research BulletinCitation Excerpt :Higher magnification of Regenerating group showed a diverse spectrum of myelination pattern, presenting properly myelinated fibers (green arrows), thinly myelinated fibers (orange arrows) and unmyelinated fibers (blue arrows) (Fig. 1C). This feature of different stages of myelination is compatible with the remyelination phenomenon that follows mild compression or galactocerebroside antiserum local injection within the cat optic nerve (Clifford-Jones et al., 1980; Carroll et al., 1990). To investigate the amount of oligodendroglia within the regenerating optic nerve, we performed immunohistochemistry against the transcription factor SOX10, since it is expressed in early OPC and retains its expression until full development into mature oligodendrocytes (Bergles and Richardson, 2015).
Visual loss and recovery in chiasmal compression
2019, Progress in Retinal and Eye ResearchCitation Excerpt :One explanation for this is that the optic nerves may adapt to chronic compression by remyelination, giving rise to varying ratios of demyelinated and remyelinated fibers within a compressed nerve. In a feline model of optic nerve compression, remyelination occurred in the presence of the causative compressive lesion, restoring conduction to some extent (Clifford-Jones et al., 1980, 1985). In their model, the compressed nerves were composed of a mixture of demyelinated, partially demyelinated and remyelinated fibers after three weeks of compression.
Visual Outcome of an Endoscopic Endonasal Transsphenoidal Approach in Pituitary Macroadenomas: Quantitative Assessment with Diffusion Tensor Imaging Early and Long-Term Results
2018, World NeurosurgeryCitation Excerpt :Statistical analysis among recovery groups and measurement time are given in Table 4. Pituitary macroadenomas may compress anterior visual pathways and cause visual impairment.11,13,14,17,18,23 There are conflicting reports in the literature that have shown few parameters to be predictive, including preoperative degree of visual loss, duration of symptoms, and size of tumor, which have been correlated with the postoperative recovery course.
