Modulation of oligodendrocyte differentiation by mechanotransduction

Oligodendrocytes (OLs) are responsible for the myelination of axons in the central nervous system. The differentiation of OLs encompasses several stages, through which cells undergo dramatic biochemical and morphological changes. Oligodendrocyte differentiation is modulated by soluble factors (SFs)...
