Abstract:Adult oligodendrocyte progenitors (aOPCs) generate myelinating oligodendrocytes like neonatal progenitors (nOPCs), and they also display unique functional features. Here, using unbiased histone proteomics analysis and ChIP sequencing analysis of PDGFRα+ OPCs sorted from neonatal and adult Pdgfra-H2B-EGFP reporter mice, we identify the activating H4K8ac histone mark as enriched in the aOPCs. We detect increased occupancy of the H4K8ac activating mark at chromatin locations corresponding to genes related to the … Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
