Methylthioadenosine promotes remyelination by inducing oligodendrocyte differentiation
2017
Background
Methylthioadenosine is a metabolite of the polyamine pathway that modulates methyltransferase activity, thereby influencing DNA and protein methylation. Since methylthioadenosine produces neuroprotection in models of inflammation, ischemia and epilepsy, we set out to evaluate the role of methylthioadenosine in promoting remyelination, a process that will protect axons in demyelinating diseases and that will aid functional recovery.
