Glia, EarlyView.Prolactin action is essential for proper myelination of white matter tracts during neonatal and prepubertal stages in mice. Lack of prolactin receptor (Prlr−/−) signaling leads to hypomyelination and impaired locomotor function. ABSTRACT A large wave of myelination in the central nervous system (CNS) of mammals occurs during postnatal development ...
