The glycoprotein P0 in peripheral gliogenesis

Cell and Tissue Research volume 292, pages 11–16 (1998)Cite this article

Abstract 

Recent data show that during development protein zero, P0, the most abundant peripheral nerve myelin protein, is detecable long before myelination. In particular, the expression of P0 in a fraction of migrating neural crest reveals progenitor cell heterogeneity in the developing PNS. Here we review the regulation and potential function of P0 during peripheral gliogenesis.
