- Abstract
Intercellular signaling between the axon and myelinating glial cells plays an essential role in the regulation of the myelination process. A recent study from Monk et al. has used a forward genetics approach in zebrafish to identify a G protein-coupled receptor that is necessary for Schwann cells to myelinate axons, thereby uncovering a critical component of the axo-glial signaling network.
