White matter integrity requires continuous myelin synthesis at the inner tongue
2020-09-03
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Summary</h4> Myelin, the electrically insulating axonal sheath, is composed of lipids and proteins with exceptionally long lifetime. This raises the question how myelin function is affected by myelin turnover. We have studied the integrity of myelinated tracts after experimentally preventing the formation of new myelin in the CNS of adult mice, using an inducible Mbp null allele. Oligodendrocytes survived re...
