Myelination, Demyelination and Remyelination Assay Service
Myelination, the process by which myelin sheaths are formed around axons in the central nervous system (CNS) and peripheral nervous system (PNS), plays a crucial role in proper neuronal function. Demyelination, on the other hand, refers to the loss or damage of these myelin sheaths. Both myelination and demyelination processes have significant implications in various neurological disorders, such as multiple sclerosis (MS). Therefore, the study of myelination, demyelination, and remyelination has gained immense importance in neuroscience research.
Creative Biolabs offers a comprehensive range of services for studying myelination, demyelination, and remyelination assays. Our team of highly skilled experts, with over 20 years of experience in the field, is dedicated to providing cutting-edge solutions to advance our understanding of these processes and develop potential therapeutics.
Assay Models
Creative Biolabs offers a range of assay models to simulate myelination, demyelination, and remyelination processes in vitro. These models include:
- Primary Cell Culture Models: Primary oligodendrocyte cultures, co-cultures of oligodendrocytes and neurons, and 3D brain organoids culture systems can be utilized to study myelination and the effects of various compounds on myelin formation and maintenance.
- Ex vivo Rodent Model: Organotypic cultures allow to perform myelination studies in a more complex and anatomically preserved environment; the slices can be isolated from transgenic mice for fate-mapping studies, demyelinated with toxicants and used to test the remyelinating potential of candidate compounds.
- Human Induced Pluripotent Stem Cell (iPSC)-Derived Models: Human iPSC-derived oligodendrocyte models provide a valuable tool for studying human-specific aspects of myelination, demyelination, and remyelination. These models allow for the assessment of patient-specific responses and the screening of potential drug candidates.
