Abstract excerpt
Terminal cellular differentiation is generally accompanied by exit from the cell cycle but the molecular basis of how the two events are coupled is poorly understood. In the central nervous system (CNS) the terminally differentiated, non-proliferating myelin-synthesizing cells, oligodendrocytes, arise from stem cells that are proliferation competent. To study the molecular mechanisms that link oligodendrocyte...
