Cyclooxygenase-2 expression in oligodendrocytes increases sensitivity to excitotoxic death
<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>We previously found that cyclooxygenase 2 (COX-2) was expressed in dying oligodendrocytes at the onset of demyelination in the Theiler's murine encephalomyelitis virus-induced demyelinating disease (TMEV-IDD) model of multiple s...
