Abstract excerpt
We have previously shown that enriched preparations of oligodendrocytes from mature bovine brain or 30d rat brain contain 4-10% ganglioside-GD3+ glial precursor cells, which differentiate into astrocytes in culture. These findings are in contrast to those described by others in cultures of neonat...
