Functional analysis of gene regulation in oligodendrocyte progenitor cells

Myelin is elaborated in the Central Nervous System (CNS) by oligodendrocytes and is essential for rapid action potential conduction. During embryogenesis and early postnatal stages of CNS development, oligodendrocyte progenitor cells (OPCs) proliferate and migrate in response to platelet deriv...
