Del Río Hortega’s insights into oligodendrocytes: recent advances in subtype characterization and functional roles in axonal support and disease

Pío Del Río Hortega (1882–1945) was a giant of modern neuroscience and perhaps the most impactful member of Cajal’s School. His contributions to clarifying the structure of the nervous system were key to understanding the brain beyond neurons. He uncovered microglia and oligodendrocytes, the latter...
