“…A number of cell types, including oligodendrocyte progenitors (Duncan et al, 1988;Keirstead et al, 1999Keirstead et al, , 2005Cao et al, 2005), Schwann cells (Blakemore and Crang Baron-Van Evercooren et al, 1992;Honmou et al, 1996), OECs (Franklin et al, 1996;Imaizumi et al, 1998;Barnett et al, 2000;Kato et al, 2000;Sasaki et al, 2004), and neural stem cells (Brustle et al, 1999;Akiyama et al, 2001), have been used to remyelinate central axons. However, an important prerequisite for recovery of action potential conduction in remyelinated axons is the appropriate organization of ion channels at nodes of Ranvier.…”
