Do senescent oligodendrocyte precursors contribute to white matter degeneration through failed remyelination?

OPEN

The debate focused on microglia and pericytes but didn't address whether OPC senescence blocks myelin repair in neurodegenerative diseases. This mechanism could explain white matter pathology independent of neuronal loss.
