Abstract
⺠Exogenous NPCs promote remyelination in a viral model of demyelination. ⺠The role of Olig1 in NPC-mediated remyelination was interrogated. ⺠Olig1 enhances NPC oligodendroglial commitment. ⺠The absence of Olig1 enhances differentiation of NPCs into astrocytes. ⺠Olig1 is required for optimal functional recovery following NPC transplantation.
