This project is focused on oligodendrocytes, the myelin forming cells of the Central Nervous System (CNS). The loss of myelin and oligodendrocytes leads to severe disruption of neuronal communication, which is the main cause of the symptoms of the demyelinating diseases multiple sclerosis (MS) leukodystrophies,Alzheimer’s disease (AD).The overall aim of my project is to examine the therapeutic potential of flavonoids for enhancing the generation of oligodendrocytes and myelin
