Human Embryonic Stem Cell-Derived Oligodendrocytes: Protocols and Perspectives
28 Apr 2013
Abstract excerpt
Oligodendrocytes play a fundamental supportive role in the mammalian central nervous system (CNS) as the myelinating-glial cells. Disruption of fast axonal transport mechanisms can occur as a consequence of mature oligodendrocyte loss following spinal cord injury, stroke, or due to neuroinflammatory conditions, such as multiple sclerosis.
