Criteria for identifying a myelin-like fraction from developing brain.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Multiple criteria must be used to relate a membrane fraction (;myelin-like') to myelin. These reported in this communication are electron microscopy, marker enzymes, sodium dodecyl sulphate-polyacrylamide-gel electrophoretic patterns and lipid composition.

The identity of a myelin-like fraction isolated from developing brain.
1. A myelin-like membrane fraction was isolated from developing rat brain by a new method. 2. The chemical composition and morphology of the fraction are described. 3. The myelin-like fraction is similar to myelin in characteristic enzyme activity but differs in the absence of basic protein and cerebrosides. No similarity to other subcellular fractions was observed. 4. It is suggested that the ...
متن کاملInvestigations on Myelinogenesis in vitro: I. The Occurrence of Endogenous Protein Kinase and Its Role in the Phosphorylation of Myelin Basic Proteins in Membranes" Isolated from Cultures "Myelin-like Cerebral Cell
The presence of a protein kinase capable of phosphorylating endogenous as well as exogenously added myelin basic proteins has been demonstrated in a myelin-like membrane fraction isolated from reaggregating and surface adhering, primary cultures of cells dissociated from embryonic mouse brain. Only the large and small components of myelin basic proteins were found to be phosphorylated when myel...
متن کاملEstimating the Age of Healthy Infants From Quantitative Myelin Water Fraction Maps
The trajectory of the developing brain is characterized by a sequence of complex, nonlinear patterns that occur at systematic stages of maturation. Although significant prior neuroimaging research has shed light on these patterns, the challenge of accurately characterizing brain maturation, and identifying areas of accelerated or delayed development, remains. Altered brain development, particul...
متن کاملMyelination in children with partial deletions of chromosome 18q.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE We compared myelin levels in white matter (WM) in typically developing children with those of children with partial deletions of chromosome 18q (18q-). METHODS Conventional spin-echo MR imaging at 1.9T was used to acquire T1-, T2-, and proton density-weighted images of the brain. From these images, a three-pool model was used to estimate the fraction of water in myelin,...
متن کاملModeling healthy male white matter and myelin development: 3 through 60 months of age
An emerging hypothesis in developmental and behavioral disorders is that they arise from disorganized brain messaging or reduced connectivity. Given the importance of myelin to efficient brain communication, characterization of myelin development in infancy and childhood may provide salient information related to early connectivity deficits. In this work, we investigate regional and whole brain...
