Neuronal Activity Promotes Oligodendrogenesis and Adaptive Myelination in the Mammalian Brain

Erin M. Gibson, David Purger, Christopher Mount, Andrea Goldstein et al.

Short summary

Neuronal activity directly stimulates the birth and maturation of myelin-producing cells (oligodendrocytes) and increases myelination in the brain. This activity-driven myelination improves motor function.
