Project Details

Description

TH regulates myelination in developing and mature CNS. Here, we aim to unravel the cell-intrinsic functions of the TH transporters Mct8 and Oatp1c1 during oligodendrocyte differentiation by studying developmental myelination and myelin repair in cell-specific Mct8/Oatp1c1-deficient mice. We will also test whether novel TH analogues can drive proper myelination in Mct8/Oatp1c1 DKO mice and may thus be considered as treatment option for AHDS.
