Maturation of a Human Oligodendrocyte Cell Line.

Techniques such as the maturation and differentiation of cell lines and progenitor cells are important for the improvement and development of representative and relevant in vitro models. In this context, the following chapter proposes a maturation model of the MO3.13 cell line, aiming to contribute to a more robust and credible in vitro model of human oligodendrocytes. This may prove to be an important tool in the study of diseases related to dysfunctions in oligodendrocytes and demyelination, including schizophrenia and multiple sclerosis.
