The levels of brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) in the corpus callosum have previously been shown to have a critical impact on oligodendrocyte (OLG) lineage cells during cuprizone-elicited demyelination. In particular, BDNF+/- mice exhibit greater losses in myelin protein levels compared to wild-type mice after cuprizone. To investigate whether OLGs may directly mediate these effects of BDNF during a lesion <i>in vivo</i>, we used the cuprizone model of demyelination with inducible condit ...[more]
