Alterations of Questionable Accuracy

I'm not an expert in the area, but I suspect that TogetherinParis's changes to this article are inaccurate or highly speculative.

I'd like to see a source for the claims that: Oligodendrocytes "main function is shared capacitance switching" and "Adjusting shared capacitance switching allows coordinated motions such as walking" and "maternal pheromone deprivation" as one of the diseases that result in injury to the oligodendroglial cells

I suspect that these are TogetherinParis's personal, unpublished theories, that contradict what is found in the literature.

For these reasons, I'm reverting this article to its state before TogetherinParis's edit.

If a published source can be found of the above claims, add them back in, with citations.

We need to integrate some information about perineuronal oligodendrocytes into this article. This paper might be of some help: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/20846325 Rob Hurt (talk) 20:57, 23 September 2012 (UTC)Reply

What can cause injuries to oligodendrocytes that lead to diseases like multiple sclerosis, and are there ways to prevent these injuries? Tristanbautista17 (talk) 21:05, 22 February 2020 (UTC)Reply
