- Cover photo description:
- An oligodendrocyte is a type of glial cell found in the central nervous system (CNS) of vertebrates. Its main function is to produce myelin, a fatty substance that forms a protective sheath around axons, enabling faster and more efficient transmission of electrical signals. Oligodendrocytes can form multiple segments of myelin sheaths, allowing them to myelinate several axons simultaneously, which is essential for proper functioning of the CNS.
