Mutation of pescadillo disrupts oligodendrocyte formation in zebrafish.
BackgroundIn vertebrates, the myelin sheath is essential for efficient propagation of action potentials along the axon shaft. Oligodendrocytes are the cells of the central nervous system that create myelin sheaths.

NF-κB RelA regulates temporal oligodendrocyte differentiation in the postnatal brains [PDF]
The NF-κB signaling pathway responds to a diverse range of cytokines and extracellular stresses, regulating immune responses, inflammation, cell proliferation, and cell death.

Mitochondrial network reorganization and transient expansion during oligodendrocyte generation [PDF]
Oligodendrocyte precursor cells (OPCs) give rise to myelinating oligodendrocytes of the brain. This process persists throughout life and is essential for recovery from neurodegeneration.

Synaptic vesicle release regulates pre-myelinating oligodendrocyte-axon interactions in a neuron subtype-specific manner [PDF]
Oligodendrocyte-lineage cells are central nervous system (CNS) glia that perform multiple functions including the selective myelination of some but not all axons.

Intranasal Administration of Undifferentiated Oligodendrocyte Lineage Cells as a Potential Approach to Deliver Oligodendrocyte Precursor Cells into Brain [PDF]
Oligodendrocyte precursor cell (OPC) migration is a mechanism involved in remyelination; these cells migrate from niches in the adult CNS. However, age and disease reduce the pool of OPCs; as a result, the remyelination capacity of the CNS decreases over

Centenary of the oligodendrocyte
“At the banquet of medicine, [histology] is the guest of honor, who eats little—aloof, mysterious—to whom all listen, yet whom very few understand.”1 For Pío del Río-Hortega (Spain, 1882–Argentina, 1945), histology blended the cold and factual with the dynamic, romantic artistry that brought the subject to light.

Oligodendrocytes in a Nutshell [PDF]
Oligodendrocytes are the myelinating cells of the central nervous system (CNS). While the phrase is oft repeated and holds true, the last few years have borne witness to radical change in our understanding of this unique cell type. Once considered static glue, oligodendrocytes are now seen as plastic and adaptive, capable of reacting to a changing CNS.

The immunomodulatory oligodendrocyte [PDF]
Oligodendrocytes, the myelinating glial cells of the central nervous system (CNS), are due to their high specialization and metabolic needs highly vulnerable to various insults. This led to a general view that oligodendrocytes are defenseless victims during brain damage such as occurs in acute and chronic CNS inflammation.

Oligodendrocyte precursors first arise in a restricted ventral part of the embryonic spinal cord and migrate laterally and dorsally from there. Later, secondary sources develop in the dorsal cord. Normally, the ventrally-derived precursors compete with and suppress their dorsal counterparts.

Oligodendrocytes in Schizophrenia [PDF]
Despite the many neuroimaging studies that suggest gray matter volume reductions in schizophrenia, there is no compelling postmortem evidence to suggest neuronal loss, nor is there a distinctive or specific signature of gray matter abnormalities in schizophrenia.
