oligodendrocytes , the myelin-forming cells of the central nervous system , were cultured from newborn rat brain and optic nerve to allow us to analyze whether two transmembranous myelin proteins , myelin-associated glycoprotein ( mag ) and proteolipid protein ( plp ) , were expressed together with myelin basic protein ( mbp ) in defined medium with low serum and in the absence of neurons .
