1931 Anat. Rec. 48 Suppl. 27 Morphological changes are found in the oligodendroglia cell during the fourth week of life, which are suggestive of the activity of this cell in myelinogenesis.
1967 Science 10 Mar. 1279/1 Thyroxine..has also been shown to accelerate myelinogenesis.
1975 Nature 25 Sept. 319/2 Areas of apparent early arrest of Schwann cell development and myelinogenesis are known to occur.
1995 Jrnl. Compar. Neurol. 355 122/1 Cellular iron accumulation is an early event in the nervous system and is related to the development of oligodendrocytes and thus may be involved in myelinogenesis.
2001 Glia 35 147 Axonal signals activate myelinogenesis via regulation of the extent to which oligodendrocyte (OLG) processes wrap around the axon.
