Transplantation reveals regional differences in oligodendrocyte differentiation in the adult brain.
Nat. Neurosci. 16, 1370-1372 (2013)
To examine the role of gray and white matter niches for oligodendrocyte differentiation, we used homo- and heterotopic transplantations into the adult mouse cerebral cortex. White matter-derived cells differentiated into mature oligodendrocytes in both niches with equal efficiency, whereas gray matter-derived cells did not. Thus, white matter promotes oligodendrocyte differentiation, and cells from this niche differentiate more easily, even in the less supportive gray matter environment.
