Myelin regeneration can occur in the brain following demyelination. Parenchymal oligodendrocyte progenitors (pOPC) are known to play a crucial role in this process. Neural stem cells (NSC) residing in the ventricular-subventricular zone (V-SVZ) also have the ability to generate oligodendrocytes but their contribution to endogenous myelin repair was so far considered to be negligible. Here, we a...

Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is a highly successful and cost-effective procedure providing substantial improvements in pain, functional disability and health-related quality of life [1]. The lifetime risk of undergoing a TKA is estimated to be 10.8% for women and 8.1% for men [2]. It is an increasingly common surgical procedure, as >80 000 operations are now performed annually in the UK, and t...
