Motor Exit Point (MEP) Glia: Novel Myelinating Glia That Bridge CNS and PNS Myelin
Oligodendrocytes (OLs) and Schwann cells (SCs) have traditionally been thought of as the exclusive myelinating glial cells of the central and peripheral nervous systems (CNS and PNS), respectively, for a little over a century. However, recent studies demonstrate the existence of a novel, centrally-d...
