The Neuromodulator Adenosine Regulates Oligodendrocyte Migration at Motor Exit Point Transition Zones
Summary: During development, oligodendrocyte progenitor cells (OPCs) migrate extensively throughout the spinal cord. However, their migration is restricted at transition zones (TZs). At these specialized locations, unique glial cells in both zebrafish and mice play a role in preventing peripheral OP...
