Abstract
The invention provides methods for producing myelin forming cells from multipotent self-renewing central nervous system neural stem cells as well as methods of using one or more cells from a multipotent self-renewing central nervous system neural stem cell population to form patches of myelin. Also provided are cell culture systems for forming patches of myelin and methods of treating demyelination diseases in a mammal.
