The effect of glia-glia interactions on oligodendrocyte precursor cell biology during development and in demyelinating diseases

Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2013
Oligodendrocyte precursor cells (OPCs) originate in specific areas of the developing central nervous system (CNS). Once generated, they migrate towards their destinations where they differentiate into mature oligodendrocytes.
