This study shows that motor and fear learning in mice do not require newly formed myelin sheaths or rapid saltatory conduction, as Mbp-cKO mice with impaired myelination still learned and remembered normally.

This study shows that oligodendrocytes produce amyloid beta in Alzheimer's Disease and that suppressing this production improves brain pathology and neuronal function.

The paper shows that oligodendrocyte production is crucial for improving working memory performance in mice during maze training.
