Different patterns of neuronal activity trigger distinct responses of oligodendrocyte precursor cells in the corpus callosum.
In the developing and adult brain, oligodendrocyte precursor cells (OPCs) are influenced by neuronal activity: they are involved in synaptic signaling with neurons, and their proliferation and differentiation into myelinating glia can be altered by transient changes in neuronal firing. An important...
