Study of myelin structure changes during the nerve fibers demyelination

Abstract: Raman, NMR and EPR spectroscopy and electrophysiology methods were used to investigate the excitability and the packaging of myelin lipid layers and its viscosity during nerve exposure to pronase E. It was established that during exposure of nerve to pronase E the action potential (AP) conduction velocity and the Schwann cell (SC) (or myelin) water ordering increases, but the nerve myelin refractive index and internode incisions numbers decrease. This effect included two periods–short- and long-time period, pr… Show more

“…As the paranodal regions are stabilized by autotypic tight junctions, one possibility is that in the absence of PrP C , these are slightly destabilized, leading to paranodal outfoldings. Furthermore, disrupted axoglial junctions have been shown to cause ion channel dispersion with accumulation of potassium between the axon and Schwann cell, eliciting swelling of the Schwann cell and remodeling of the myelin, a phenomenon that fits with the observed pathology in the nerves from PRNP Ter/Ter goats.…”

“…Carotenoids play an important role in the antioxidant defense system in the healthy brain [ 60 ]. Carotenoids have been extensively studied and confirmed as a cancer biomarker in human organs using Raman, especially resonance Raman spectroscopy, to identify cancers of the skin, rectum/colon, lung, breast, and brain [ 42 , 61 , 62 , 63 ]. Johnson et al reported the important role of carotenoids, and particularly the presence of lutein and zeaxanthin, in normal brain tissue [ 64 , 65 , 66 ].…”

“…Raman spectroscopy techniques have been used to study human bladder cancer, esophageal cancer, gastrointestinal cancer, cervical cancer, skin melanoma lesions, lung cancer, breast cancer, and brain tumors, not only ex vivo but also in vivo [ 15 , 16 , 19 , 20 , 21 , 22 , 22 , 23 , 26 , 27 , 28 , 31 , 33 , 36 , 37 , 38 , 39 , 40 ]. Besides solid tumors, Raman spectroscopy has also been used to detect vulnerable atherosclerotic plaques, atherosclerotic abdominal aortic tissues, and nerve tissues, and even the cerebrospinal fluid and serum of patients [ 41 , 42 , 43 , 44 ].…”

“…RS has been used to study nerve myelin during excitation or the effect of neurotransmitter on nerve fibre. It has been shown that the changes in the C-C bonds of the fatty acids can be detected as well as the changes in the conformation [78]. This knowledge will improve our understanding of the mechanisms of lipid-lipid interactions in myelin and many processes associated with various diseases, such as multiple sclerosis, trauma and AD.…”
