How does the brain repair myelin after injury? We mapped the full cellular choreography of white matter repair using snRNA-seq + Slide-seqv2, uncovering a type I interferon-driven glial program that recruits lymphocytes to promote remyelination. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1... Details below 👇
Spatiotemporal Analysis of Remyelination Reveals a Concerted Interferon-Responsive Glial State That Coordinates Immune Infiltration
Remyelination, the process by which axons are re-encased in myelin after injury, is a critical step in restoring brain function, yet the dynamics from initial injury to repair remain poorly characteri...

Imaging these astrocytes on the surface of cleared brains was a blast!
A new study led by @philiphasel.bsky.social reveals the unique genetic profile of astrocytes that form the glia limitans superficialis (GLS), the thin layer of cells that covers the brain and spinal cord 🧠 Dr Hasel spoke to @thetransmitter.bsky.social about his work⬇️
