Monocarboxylate transporter 2 is required for the maintenance of myelin and axonal integrity by oligodendrocytes

Leire Izagirre‐Urizar, Luna Mora-Huerta, Irene Soler-Sáez…·Vanja Tepavčević

This study shows that MCT2 is essential for oligodendrocyte myelin maintenance and axonal support, and its loss leads to myelin and axonal damage, which can be mitigated by a ketogenic diet.
