Abstract
This application provides for enriched target populations oligodendrocyte precursor cells (OPCs) that can differentiate into oligodendrocytes. The target OPCs may be expanded and optionally subjected to conditions to induce their differentiation into oligodendrocytes. The target OPCs and their progeny are useful for the treatment of disease associated with demyelination of central nervous system axons.
