Reorganization of Lipid Diffusion by Myelin Basic Protein as Revealed by STED Nanoscopy.

Myelin is a multilayered membrane that ensheathes axonal fibers in the vertebrate nervous system, allowing fast propagation of nerve action potentials. It contains densely packed lipids, lacks an actin-based cytocortex, and requires myelin basic protein (MBP) as its major structural component. This protein is the basic constituent of the proteinaceous meshwork that is localized between adjacent cytoplasmic membranes of the myelin sheath.

[Peculiarities of tear production in patients with dacryoadenitis].

The influence of chronic adenitis and its surgical treatment on tear production and osmolarity was studied. A long-term follow-up (2-65 months) after lacrimal gland extirpation showed a trend for recovery of both basal and reflex lacrimation. Comparison of complaints and functional and pathohistological results allowed to consider retention cysts as a risk factor for dry eye syndrome in the postoperative period.
