Navigating oligodendrocyte precursor cell aging in brain health
Oligodendrocyte precursor cells (OPCs) comprise 5–8 % of the adult glial cell population and stand out as the most proliferative cell type in the central nervous system (CNS). OPCs are responsible for generating oligodendrocytes (OLs), the myelinating cells of the CNS. However, OPC functions decline as we age, resulting in impaired differentiation and inadequate remyelination. This review explores the cellular and molecular changes associated with OPC aging, and their impact on OPC differentiation and functionality. Furthermore, it examines the impact of OPC aging within the context of multiple sclerosis and Alzheimer’s disease, both neurodegenerative conditions wherein aged OPCs exacerbate disease progression by impeding remyelination. Moreover, various pharmacological interventions targeting pathways related to senescence and differentiation are discussed as potential strategies to rejuvenate aged OPCs. Enhancing our understanding of OPC aging mechanisms holds promise for developing new therapies to improve remyelination and repair in age-related neurodegenerative disorders.
期刊介绍:
Mechanisms of Ageing and Development is a multidisciplinary journal aimed at revealing the molecular, biochemical and biological mechanisms that underlie the processes of aging and development in various species as well as of age-associated diseases. Emphasis is placed on investigations that delineate the contribution of macromolecular damage and cytotoxicity, genetic programs, epigenetics and genetic instability, mitochondrial function, alterations of metabolism and innovative anti-aging approaches. For all of the mentioned studies it is necessary to address the underlying mechanisms.
Mechanisms of Ageing and Development publishes original research, review and mini-review articles. The journal also publishes Special Issues that focus on emerging research areas. Special issues may include all types of articles following peered review. Proposals should be sent directly to the Editor-in-Chief.
