A distinct population of OPCs associates with sensory nerves. |
Sensory OLs maintain a distinct sheath profile. |
Oligodendrocyte progenitor cells contact the DREZ immediately following axon entry. |
Failed axon entry does not result in sensory-related OLCs. |
Early axon entry promotes early OPC migration to sensory nerves. |
Sensory-related OLCs do not express typical OLC |
Sensory-related OLCs display distinct Ca2+ transients compared to non-sensory-related OLCs. |
Sensory-related OLC ablation disrupts sensory behavior. |
