CDC42‐Effector Proteins Regulate Higher Order Structure of Septins Required for CNS Myelin Integrity 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...

If you're interested in the factors that enable the regular structure of CNS #myelin sheaths by #oligodendrocytes, check this out. Featuring a #CDC42 - effector proteins - #septin axis. Congrats to 1st author Sophie, and a big thank you to all who contributed

Direct labeling of microtubule turnover reveals in-lattice repair and stabilization patterns in developing neurons The microtubule cytoskeleton is the backbone of neuronal morphogenesis, driving the development of the dendrites and axon, and supporting trafficking to distant compartments. How neuronal microtubules...

🚨The Neurocyto lab is branching out in our latest preprint! We used tubulin microinjection to directly visualize microtubule turnover in developing hippocampal neurons, demonstrating the presence of in-lattice repair and a selective stabilization in the nascent axon. Check below, or read on 🧵 1/9

Neuronal fatty acid oxidation fuels memory after intensive learning in Drosophila - Nature Metabolism Neurons are shown to use fatty acid β-oxidation as a fuel source for memory formation upon intensive learning in Drosophila, challenging the view that neurons are unable to use fatty acids for energy ...

Textbooks said neurons don’t burn fatty acids for energy🤔. Our study delivers the first in vivo demonstration that fatty acid oxidation in defined memory neurons fuels memory formation.

Closing chapter of my PhD 🥳, out today in Nature Metabolism💥 @natmetabolism.nature.com

Super exciting news for the #OligOld team 🤩😱: our project Epiglia has been awarded an #ERCCog!
Ready to dive into the epigenetics of oligodendroglial cells in Alzheimer for the next 5 years with our amazing group and collaborators @inp-marseille.bsky.social @univ-amu.fr

Interesting study from the ppl @solvingforsci.bsky.social. Very much in line with our earlier findings with @preprintclub.bsky.social (www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...) :
1/ Reviewers can distinguish quality and impact (+novelty in our model)
2/ Trainees want to review
3/ Authors love the experience

Targeting prostaglandin E2 receptor 2 in Schwann cells inhibits inflammatory pain but not inflammation - Nature Communications Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are known to alleviate pain by reducing inflammation. To the contrary, here, the authors show that selective inhibition of the prostaglandin E2 receptor (EP2) in Schwann cells eliminates pain without disrupting the protective and healing functions of inflammation.

Did you know that facial expressions reveal more than meets the eye? 🤯

Our new study shows that even a mouse's face 🐭 can reflect hidden neural computations🧠. Turns out, facial expressions are more than just emotions!

We're so excited to see this paper out @natneuro.nature.com 🎉

Scientific productivity gap based on English-language peer-reviewed papers. Shown are the maximum % differences in the number of peer-reviewed papers published by female native English speakers from a high-income country (-45%), female non-native English speakers from a high-income country (-60%), and female non-native English speakers from a lower-middle income country (-70%), compared to male native English speakers from a high-income country (red flag).

Transient gene melting governs the timing of oligodendrocyte maturation Oligodendrocyte maturation is governed by an SOX6-dependent gene-melted chromatin state at multiple immaturity loci. Reducing SOX6 accelerates maturation, offering a potential strategy to regenerate myelin in diseases like multiple sclerosis.
