## Abstract Schwann cells within a peripheral nerve respond robustly after an axonal injury. Recent results have revealed that Schwann cells undergo concurrent proliferation and apoptosis after a chronic nerve injury that is independent of axonal pathology. Although the exact nature of the stimulus

## Abstract We have previously demonstrated that, in C6 glioma cells, eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) stimulates the expression of proteolipid protein (PLP) via cAMPβmediated pathways. In this study, we investigated whether nβ3 polyunsaturated fatty acids can affect myelinogenesis in vivo. A single dos
Transferrin (Tf) is a possible regulator of oligodendrocyte development in vitro (Espinosa de los Monteros et al., 1989). At least two different mechanisms may account for the effects of Tf on myelin synthesis. It may act as a trophic factor and enhance the formation of new myelin sheaths. Tf may al
Protein kinase C (PKC), a family of closely related enzymes, has been implicated in molecular processes involved in differentiation in a variety of cells, including neuronal cells. We studied the presence and distribution of four PKC isozymes immunocytochemically in primary neuronal cultures of the
## Abstract Our previous results support the idea that CREB (cyclic AMPβresponse element binding protein) may be a mediator of neuroligand and growth factor signals that, coupled to different signal transduction pathways, play different roles at specific stages of oligodendrocyte development. In th
