oligodendrocytes add _________s that influence the growth of axions both in the developing brain and in the recovering brain that's undergoing a process by which it will try to re-generate connections that have been lost due to injury. Now, unfortunately the oligodendrocyte also presents ()s that are subject to immunological attack in certain diseases of the central nervous system. A preeminent example of which would be multiple sclerosis in which oligodendrocytes are the subject of the immunological attack, and myelin can break down, and with the breakdown of myelin, is a loss in the efficiency of the conduction of neural signals along axons, and that can lead to neurological dysfunction.
