Annals of Neurology · 2009 · 55 citations · 37 references

Abstract

NMDA receptor-mediated injury to oligodendrocyte processes navigating along small premyelinated axons precedes damage to the underlying axon, a phenomena that is lost following radial expansion and subsequent oligodendrocyte ensheathment.
