TASK-1 channels in oligodendrocytes: A role in ischemia mediated disruption
Oligodendrocytes are the myelinating cells of the CNS and, like neurons, are highly sensitive to ischemic damage. However, the mechanisms underlying cytotoxicity in oligodendrocytes during hypoxic/ischemic episodes are not fully understood. TASK-1 is a K+

Individual Oligodendrocytes Show Bias for Inhibitory Axons in the Neocortex
Summary: Reciprocal communication between neurons and oligodendrocytes is essential for the generation and localization of myelin, a critical feature of the CNS.

Disease-Associated Oligodendrocyte: New Player in Alzheimer's Disease and CNS Pathologies
Considerable evidence has shown that the breakdown of myelin has been linked to Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Considering the vulnerability of oligodendrocytes to Alzheimer’s disease, the myelin sheath breakdown and degeneration are easily induced ...

Developmental stage of oligodendrocytes determines their response to activated microglia
Background Oligodendrocyte progenitor cells (OPCs) and mature oligodendrocytes are both lost in central nervous system injury and disease. Activated microglia may play a role in OPC and oligodendrocyte loss or replacement, but it is not clear how the ...

Multiple Restricted Origin of Oligodendrocytes
Theplpgene encodes the proteolipid protein and its alternatively spliced product DM-20, major proteins of CNS myelin. In the mouse,plp/dm-20transcripts are expressed beginning at embryonic day 9.5 (E9.5) by restricted foci of germinative neuroepithelial ...

Multiple system atrophy (MSA) is pathologically characterized by the presence of fibrillar α-synuclein-immunoreactive inclusions in oligodendrocytes. Although the myelinating process of oligodendrocytes can be observed in adult human brains, little is ...

In addition to the extensive gap junction coupling between astrocytes themselves, oligodendrocytes are thought to be exclusively coupled to astrocytes (O:A coupling) via heterotypic gap junctions composed of Cx47:Cx43 and Cx32:Cx30.

Oligodendrocytes, the myelinating cells in the central nervous system (CNS), are critical for producing myelin throughout the CNS. The loss of oligodendrocytes is associated with multiple neurodegenerative disorders mediated by psychosine.

Mature oligodendrocytes actively increase in vivo [PDF]
BACKGROUND Oligodendrocytes are myelinating cells of the central nervous system which support functionally, structurally, and metabolically neurons.
