Our #preprint out on @biorxiv-neursci.bsky.social! 🥳🥳
Using the #killifish optic nerve, we show that #aging alone is sufficient to trigger the emergence of #interferon-responsive #oligodendrocytes, a cell state shared with neurodegenerative and demyelinating diseases.

A long-standing mystery in #neuroscience is how the length of myelin sheaths are matched to the axons they wrap. Marie Bechler &co show that #oligodendrocytes use Piezo1 to sense axon diameter and locally control sheath elongation 🧪 #NeuroSky buff.ly/9HdgiHt

This image depicts a single oligodendrocyte cell myelinating mixed diameter synthetic axons. The myelin basic protein immunofluorescence image has been colorized by confocal z-plane and modified with edge detection to highlight numerous myelin sheaths of different lengths formed by a single oligodendrocyte. The longer myelin sheath formed on a larger diameter synthetic axon stands out in blue-green. Image credit: Marie E. Bechler

Research Spotlight 💡

How do oligodendrocytes contribute to age-related cognitive decline? Craig et al. link oligodendrocyte dysfunction and reduced NRF2 expression to changes in myelin, axonal health & cognition.
