Abstract
We are investigating the factors controlling growth and differentiation of oligodendrocytes precursor cells during CNS myelination and remyelination. These studies have stemmed from the description of O-2A progenitor cells in the newborn rat optic nerve (reviewed in Raff, 1989). These progenitor cells are bipotential since they can differentiate either into oligodendrocytes, which form myelin in the CNS, or type 2 astrocytes, which extend processes to nodes of Ranvier. Therefore, the lineage derived from this progenitor is called the oligodendrocyte-type 2 astrocyte (O-2A) lineage. O-2A progenitor cells are identified by immunolabeling with an antibody to cell surface gangliosides (A2B5) or glycoproteins (NSP4). O-2A progenitor cells purified and cultured from newborn rat brain (Behar et al., 1988) are shown in Figure 1.
