Central myelin gene expression during postnatal development in rats exposed to nicotine gestationally.

abstract：:Oligodendrocytes in different central nervous system regions have dissimilar morphologies. In order to find out if immature oligodendrocytes develop different phenotypes spontaneously, neonatal spinal and cerebral rat oligodendrocytes were cultured in vitro in the absence of neurons. The results show that spinal oligo...
