Women affected by premenstrual disorders have a higher risk of perinatal depression compared with those who do not, according to new research.

This study suggests that a common mechanism might contribute to the two conditions.

Researchers report that mature oligodendrocytes -- the central nervous system cells critical for brain function -- cling to life following a fatal trauma for much, much longer than scientists knew. The findings suggest a new pathway for efforts to reverse or prevent the damage that aging and diseases such as multiple sclerosis cause to these important cells.
