Molecular interventions to overcome the ageing of CNS stem cells
2019-01-01
Abstract excerpt
Oligodendrocyte progenitor cells (OPCs) are the dominant tissue-specific stem cell of the central nervous system (CNS). In the adult, OPCs primarily differentiate into oligodendrocytes, the cell type that wraps neurons with myelin allowing for efficient signal transduction down the axon. Increasingly, the process of adult myelination is understood as a key process in learning, memory formation, and promoting overa...
