New work from Yasmine Kamen shows that differentiating oligodendrocytes are filled with the zymogen procaspase-3. This provides a specific marker for new oligodendrocytes and suggests a role for this pathway in oligodendrocyte fate decisions.

New work from @Anpietra that defines in vivo mitochondrial morphometrics and dynamics in microglia. Alicia discovered that mitochondria are rarely present in surveillant or injury-responding processes. @MCBDartmouth @DartmouthNeuro @dartmouthartsci

New work from Genaro using oligodendrocyte 2Phatal to determine how dying oligodendrocytes and myelin are cleared from the brain. Genaro discovered that this process is highly orchestrated, carried out by single microglia, and modulated by Cx3r1.

New work by Xhoela reveals how mitochondria change during oligodendrocyte generation. In addition to showing precisely how these organelles are partitioned in the cell, Xhoela also discovered that animal arousal impacts mitochondrial motility in OPCs.
