New insights into the roles of oligodendrocytes regulation in ischemic stroke recovery

So maybe there is myelin damage from our strokes. 

Well your doctor should already have implemented myelin repair from all this earlier research. But I bet your doctors have incompetently done nothing in the the past 11 years on this.

Highlights

  • Recent advances on the function of OLs in ischemic stroke.

  • More attention should be paid to treatment strategies for OLs, myelin sheath, and their receptors.

  • The present and emerging principles that serve as the foundation for protective strategies against OLs deaths.

Abstract

Oligodendrocytes (OLs), the myelin-forming cells of the central nervous system, are integral to axonal integrity and function. Hypoxia-ischemia episodes can cause severe damage to these vulnerable cells through excitotoxicity, oxidative stress, inflammation, and mitochondrial dysfunction, leading to axonal dystrophy, neuronal dysfunction, and neurological impairments. OLs damage can result in demyelination and myelination disorders, severely impacting axonal function, structure, metabolism, and survival. Adult-onset stroke, periventricular leukomalacia, and post-stroke cognitive impairment primarily target OLs, making them a critical therapeutic target. Therapeutic strategies targeting OLs, myelin, and their receptors should be given more emphasis to attenuate ischemia injury and establish functional recovery after stroke. This review summarizes recent advances on the function of OLs in ischemic injury, as well as the present and emerging principles that serve as the foundation for protective strategies against OL deaths.
