...Jayshree Samanta; John A. Kessler Bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) signaling inhibits the generation of oligodendroglia and enhances generation of astrocytes by neural progenitor cells both in vitro and in vivo. This study examined the mechanisms underlying the effects of BMP signaling on glial...

... to differentiate into oligodendroglia and go on to express the oligodendroglial specific surface glycolipid galactocerebroside (GC) and then the myelin proteins CNP and MBP. However, a significant proportion of immature bipolar G D3 + cells remained after 6 days in secondary culture. It appears that not all the O...

...Richard Reynolds; Graham P. Wilkin Using immunofluorescence with a panel of antibodies that recognize antigens expressed by oligodendroglia, the myelin-producing cells of the CNS, at different stages of differentiation from precursor to mature cell, we have investigated the development of cells...
