Exploring myelination in vivo. Disorders of white matter »myelin« are the cause of many common neurological diseases. Despite the major involvement of oligodendrocytes in CNS myelination in health and disease, there are still many uncertainties when it comes to questions about the various factors that cause oligodendrocytes to provide proper initial myelination, remyelination, or even fine-tuning of myelination that enables CNS plasticity for learning and memory. Our research group uses the zebrafish larvae vertebrate model for in vivo CNS myelin analysis as well as for other developmental, neuro-physilogical and general disease model research.
