Human Gene Set: GOBP_OLIGODENDROCYTE_PROGENITOR_PROLIFERATION

For the Mouse gene set with the same name, see GOBP_OLIGODENDROCYTE_PROGENITOR_PROLIFERATION

Standard name GOBP_OLIGODENDROCYTE_PROGENITOR_PROLIFERATION
Systematic name M24386
Brief description The multiplication or reproduction of oligodendrocyte progenitor cells by cell division, resulting in the expansion of their population. Oligodendrocyte progenitors give rise to oligodendrocytes, which form the insulating myelin sheath of axons in the central nervous system. [GOC:mah, GOC:sl, PMID:15504915]
