The Protective Effects of Inosine Against Chemical Hypoxia on Cultured Rat Oligodendrocytes
Inosine is a purine nucleoside and is considered protective to neural cells including neurons and astrocytes against hypoxic injury. However, whether oligodendrocytes (OLs) could also be protected from hypoxia...
