• Regulation of exosome secretion by Rab35 and its GTPase-activating proteins TBC1D10A–C (2010, background): “…of Rab35, we analyzed the expression of Rab35 in myelin, a plasma membrane extension of oligodendrocytes which is formed during the development of the central nervous system by the spiral wrapping of glial membrane around the axons (Sherman and Brophy, 2005; Simons and Trotter, 2007; Barres, 2008).”
• Oligodendrocytes: biology and pathology (2009, background): “Moreover, the ensheathment of multiple axons by a single oligodendrocyte is a highly coordinated event: oligodendrocytes do not ensheath different axons sequentially at different time points, but are done within a brief window of time, typically within 12–18 h [8, 202].”
