Journal ArticleDOI

Astrocytes in aged nonhuman primate brain gray matter synthesize excess hyaluronan

TL;DR: It is found that HA levels significantly increase with age in the gray matter of rhesus macaques, and data indicate that HAS1 and CD44 are transcriptionally upregulated in astrocytes during normative aging and are linked to HA accumulation in gray matter.
Journal ArticleDOI

Hyaluronan Synthesis, Catabolism, and Signaling in Neurodegenerative Diseases

TL;DR: It is suggested that targeting HA synthesis, catabolism, and signaling are all potential strategies to promote CNS repair through mechanisms that include the regulation of progenitor cell differentiation and proliferation.
Journal ArticleDOI

CD44 transmembrane receptor and hyaluronan regulate adult hippocampal neural stem cell quiescence and differentiation

TL;DR: It is found that HA and CD44 play important roles in regulating adult neurogenesis, and evidence that HA contributes to age-related reductions in neural stem cell (NSC) expansion and differentiation in the hippocampus is provided.
Journal ArticleDOI

Japanese macaque encephalomyelitis: a spontaneous multiple sclerosis-like disease in a nonhuman primate

TL;DR: To describe Japanese macaque encephalomyelitis, a spontaneous inflammatory demyelinating disease occurring in the Oregon National Primate Research Center's (ONPRC) colony of Japanese macaques (JMs, Macaca fuscata).
