Journal ArticleDOI

Microglial Remodeling of the Extracellular Matrix Promotes Synapse Plasticity.

TL;DR: It is found that neuronal IL-33 instructs microglial engulfment of the extracellular matrix (ECM) and that its loss leads to impaired ECM engulfment and a concomitant accumulation of ECM proteins in contact with synapses, which define a cellular mechanism through which microglia regulate experience-dependent synapse remodeling and promote memory consolidation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Preservation of a remote fear memory requires new myelin formation.

TL;DR: Bidirectional manipulation of myelin plasticity functionally affects behavior and neurophysiology, which suggests that neural activity during fear learning instructs the formation of new myelin, which in turn supports the consolidation and/or retrieval of remote fear memories.
Journal ArticleDOI

Regulation and dysregulation of axon infrastructure by myelinating glia.

TL;DR: Pan and Chan discuss the role of myelinating glia in axonal development and the impact of demyelination on axon degeneration.
Journal ArticleDOI

Myelination of Neuronal Cell Bodies when Myelin Supply Exceeds Axonal Demand.

TL;DR: Balancing oligodendrocyte-intrinsic programs of myelin supply with axonal demand is essential for correct myelin targeting in vivo and highlight potential liabilities of strongly promoting oligodENDrogenesis.
