Induction of cerebroside synthesis in oligodendroglia
Neurochemical Research, 1990Oligodendroglia function to produce myelin membranes which surround axons, enhancing saltatory conduction. Myelin consists of a multitude of condensed membranes which are rich in lipids with the major glycolipids, cerebrosides, being 25% of the total lipid.

Ultrastructural evidence for phagocytosis by oligodendroglia
Neuroscience Letters, 1985Although the phagocytic ability of brain macrophages and astrocytes is well established, the question of whether oligodendrocytes may become phagocytic remains controversial. Observations reported here indicate that oligodendroglia may become activated and ingest degenerating or foreign material in vivo following experimental injury to the central ...

The twitcher mouse: An ultrastructural study on the oligodendroglia
Acta Neuropathologica, 1983Morphological alterations of oligodendroglia were investigated in the spinal cord of the twitcher mouse, an authentic murine model of human globoid cell leukodystrophy (GLD) from day 5 to day 45 postnatal (p.n.). Typical inclusions were seen in the perikarya as well as the processes of oligodendroglia after day 10 with increasing frequency.

Advances in Neurobiology
Oligodendroglia are highly specialised to myelinate axons and ensure rapid electrical conduction of action potentials in the central nervous system (CNS). The oligodendroglial cell lineage comprises mature myelinating oligodendrocytes, together with oligodendrocyte precursor cells (OPCs) and immature premyelinating oligodendrocytes, their numerical ...

Endocannabinoid signaling in oligodendroglia
Glia, 2022AbstractIn the central nervous system, oligodendrocytes synthesize the myelin, a specialized membrane to wrap axons in a discontinuous way allowing a rapid saltatory nerve impulse conduction. Oligodendrocytes express a number of growth factors and neurotransmitters receptors that allow them to sense the environment and interact with neurons and other ...

Oligodendroglia in Developmental Neurotoxicity
NeuroToxicology, 2003The developing nervous system has been long recognized as a primary target for a variety of toxicants. To date, most efforts to understand the impact of neurotoxic agents on the brain have focused primarily on neurons and to a lesser degree astroglia as cellular targets.

Immunologic characterization of oligodendroglia
Neuroscience Letters, 1978Abstract Oligodendrocytes were isolated from bovine white matter by trypsinization and sucrose gradient centrifugation, and were injected into rabbits. Indirect immunofluorescence studies showed that antisera reacted specifically with the surface of isolated oligodendrocytes in suspension, as well as with perineural and interfasicular oligodendroglia

Oligodendrocytes are the myelinating cells of the CNS, producing the insulating myelin sheath that facilitates rapid electrical conduction of axonal action potentials. Oligodendrocytes arise from oligodendrocyte progenitor cells (OPCs) under the control of multiple factors, including neurotransmitters and other neuron-derived factors.

Evolution of Oligodendroglia and Myelin
Advances in NeurobiologyThe evolution of the nervous system emerged in primaeval animals to coordinate their behaviour then advanced by the division of function between neurones and neuroglia; neurones became dedicated to information processing and neuroglia specialised in homeostatic support. As the nervous system became more complex and neurones extended axonal connections,

Oligodendroglia are the only cell lineage of the central nervous system (CNS) responsible for producing myelin. They originate from precursor cells known as oligodendrocyte precursor cells (OPCs), which are born around the ventricular zones of the brain and spinal cord and migrate throughout the developing CNS, and many of them ultimately differentiate
