Abstract

Generation of mature oligodendrocytes (OLs) from its progenitors is a controlled process. In this study, Tripathi et al. describes the role of miR-27a, expressed by oligodendrocyte lineage cells, in affecting multiple stages of this process. While miR-27a is needed for generation of mature OLs, increased levels of miR-27a is detected during demyelination and leads to failed remyelination.
