Quiescence of adult oligodendrocyte precursor cells requires thyroid hormone and hypoxia to activate Runx1

Abstract The adult mammalian central nervous system (CNS) contains a population of slowly dividing oligodendrocyte precursor cells (OPCs), i.e., adult OPCs, which supply new oligodendrocytes throughout the life of animal.
