Trajectories of brain white matter development in young children with prenatal alcohol exposure

Preeti Kar et al.

Summary: Prenatal alcohol exposure is associated with alterations in brain white matter microstructure. Children with prenatal alcohol exposure show slower white matter development in certain brain regions, which may have implications for cognitive and behavioral learning.

Brain myelination at 7 months of age predicts later language development

Neva M. Corrigan et al.

Summary: Between 6 and 12 months of age, infants undergo dramatic changes in language processing. This study found that there were significant changes in myelin density during this period, and myelin density at 7 months of age had a strong predictive relationship with later language development.

Towards in vivo g-ratio mapping using MRI: Unifying myelin and diffusion imaging

Siawoosh Mohammadi et al.

Summary: This review summarizes recent developments in g-ratio mapping using MRI, discussing methodological background and challenges associated with these approaches. Estimating the relationship between MRI markers and true myelin volume fraction is crucial for achieving precise, high sensitivity g-ratio mapping. More research and experiments are needed to fully explore the potential of many novel techniques.

Age-related estimates of aggregate g-ratio of white matter structures assessed using quantitative magnetic resonance neuroimaging

Mustapha Bouhrara et al.

Summary: The g-ratio, a measure of myelinated axon diameter, is linked to nerve impulse conduction speed and serves as a biomarker for neurodevelopment and neurodegeneration. This study on cognitively normal adults found a nonlinear relationship between age and aggregate g-ratio in various brain regions, with myelin maturation until middle age followed by a decrease at older ages. Sex differences in aggregate g-ratio were also observed, with women showing lower values overall, likely due to greater myelin content in the female brain.

Alberto Lazari et al.

Summary: The study conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis on MRI-based myelin markers, finding correlations between various myelin histology metrics and markers from different MRI modalities, but no single most sensitive strategy to measure myelin with MRI. The authors provided a detailed characterization of the evaluated studies and 12 recommendations for future research.

Long-term monitoring of chronic demyelination and remyelination in a rat ischemic stroke model using macromolecular proton fraction mapping

Marina Yu Khodanovich et al.

Summary: This study investigated the feasibility of monitoring demyelination and remyelination in experimental stroke using MPF. Results showed distinct sub-regions within the infarct with different patterns of myelin damage and repair, with remyelination zones demonstrating active axonal regrowth and neuronal proliferation while demyelination zones showed extensive astrogliosis. Overall, MPF mapping was validated as a novel approach for assessing myelin damage and repair in ischemic stroke.
