چکیده

A new and convenient myelin stain is described. Paraformaldehyde fixed tissue is serially immersed in a nitroblue tetrazolium solution and then in a diaminobenzidine solution. The result is distinct blue staining of myelinated fiber tracts. This technique has advantages over presently used myelin stains.

A modified technique for high-resolution staining of myelin.

This report describes a new modification of the Gallyas method for staining myelin in fixed brain tissue and compares results of multiple myelin-visualizing techniques in normal common marmoset (Callithrix jacchus), normal macaque monkey (Macaca mulatta), and a human with multiple sclerosis. The new modification involves immersion in 10% formalin following impregnation in ammoniacal silver nitr...

Poster and Exhibit Abstracts ( In alphabetical order by author )

Hearing loss, vestibular disorders and damaged eyesight can be the result of axonal degeneration (Int Jour Ped Otrlaryn, 61:1-15; Inst Opthalm, 7:109-125). Improper functioning of the myelin sheath may be responsible for this degeneration, due to its role in conducting chemical and electrical neural signaling. Investigation of myelin degeneration requires understanding of normal myelinogenesis ...

Myelin Protection by Ursolic Acid in Cuprizone-Induced Demyelination in Mice

Neuronal survival in multiple sclerosis (MS) and other demyelinating diseases depends on the preservation of myelin and remyelination of axons. Myelin protection is the main purpose to decrease myelin damage in the central nervous system (CNS). Ursolic acid (UA) as a natural product in apple is suggested to protect neural cells. This study is the first to demonstrate an effect for UA on CNS mye...
