Temporal and spatial profiles of oligodendrocyte maturation

(A) Temporal profile of oligodendrocyte maturation showing that pre-oligodendrocytes, which are particularly vulnerable to hypoxia-ischemia, are the predominant cell type seen during the highest risk period for preterm white matter injury. (B) Spatial distribution of pre-oligodendrocytes varies over time. Abbreviations: OPC = oligodendrocyte precursor cells, pre-OLs = pre-oligodendrocytes, OL = oligodendrocyte.
