Enhanced oligodendrocyte maturation and myelination in a mouse model of Timothy syndrome.

abstract：:Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic inflammatory disease of the central nervous system leading to selective destruction of myelin sheaths and/or oligodendrocytes. The immunological mechanisms responsible for myelin destruction and the primary target of the immune response have not yet been identified. Prior studies h...
