NEURON TO OLIGODENDROCYTE PRECURSOR CELL SYNAPSES: PROTAGONISTS IN OLIGODENDROCYTE DEVELOPMENT AND MYELINATION, AND TARGETS FOR THERAPEUTICS

Neuron to Oligodendrocyte Precursor Cell Synapses: Protagonists in Oligodendrocyte Development and Myelination, and Targets for Therapeutics

Home The development of neuronal circuitry required for cognition, complex motor behaviors, and sensory integration requires myelination.The role of glial cells such as astrocytes and microglia in shaping synapses and circuits have been covered in other reviews in this journal and elsewhere.This review summarizes the role of another glial cell type
