This project investigates the dynamics of oligodendroglial precursors in the nervous system, focusing on their role in myelin formation and repair. Using zebrafish as a model, the research aims to understand how these cells differentiate and their potential in developing new treatments for myelin-related disorders.
Nervous system function requires precise communication between myriads of neurons and glia to generate and maintain a functional organ.
Most axons are eventually surrounded with myelin, an insulating structure produced by specialized oligodendroglia.
This cellular interaction enables fast signal transmission, ensures long-term axon survival, and is involved in regulating learning and memory formation.The formation of new myelin during lifelong development and after myelin damage requires differe…
