Access through your institution Buy or subscribe Oligodendrocytes change shape during myelination, suggesting that correct modulation of cell polarity is essential to their function. Jarjour
_et al_. showed that the protein Scribble, an evolutionarily conserved regulator of cell polarity, is increased in mouse oligodendrocytes as they differentiate. Oligodendrocyte-specific
deletion of the gene encoding Scribble reduced developmental myelination in the CNS and impaired remyelination following a demyelinating lesion. This suggests that Scribble is an important
modulator of oligodendrocyte function during development and repair. This is a preview of subscription content, access via your institution ACCESS OPTIONS Access through your institution
