Myelinated axons create the white matter (connectome) of the human brain and spinal cord, which connect and synchronize hundreds of billions of neurons, thus defining the information processing function of the central nervous system. Oligodendrocytes and myelination play an essential role in regulating every bodily function and behavior. Damage to white matter, myelin, and oligodendrocytes results in severe diseases of the CNS. Pathology and Pathophysiology of Oligodendroglia, presented by the major authorities in the field, is the very first reference to combine, under a single cover, a full and detailed description of the physiology and pathophysiology of oligodendroglia, with a particular emphasis on neurodegenerative diseases.Advances in Neurobiology,2190-5223 ;43NeurophysiologyNeuronsNeurosciencesCellular NeuroscienceNeuroscienceNeurophysiologyNeurophysiology.Neurons.Neurosciences.Cellular Neuroscience.Neuroscience.Neurophysiology.612.81046Yi Chenju1828715Butt Arthur1344575Verkhratsky Alexei917755Niu Jianqin1828716MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9911010529503321Physiology and Pathophysiology of Oligodendroglia4397630UNINA
