Any of the neuroglial cells of the central nervous system that are responsible for the formation of myelin sheaths in the white matter and that, in the gray matter, are detectable using myelin staining techniques and may provide support for adjacent neurons.oligodendrocyte (ˌɒlɪɡəʊˈdɛndrəʊsaɪt) n (Anatomy) anatomy a glial cell involved in the formation of the myelin sheaths of nerve cell axonsThesaurus| Noun | 1. | oligodendrocyte - a cell of the oligodendrogliaglial cell, neurogliacyte, neuroglial cell - a cell of the neurogliaoligodendria, oligodendroglia - tissue consisting of glial cells with sheetlike processes that form the myelin sheath of nerve fibers |

OGLIODENDROCYTEoligodendrocyte (ol?i-go-den'tro-sit) [? + ? + kytos, cell] A glial cell found most commonly in axon tracts; it myelinates axons in the central nervous system just as Schwann cells myelinate axons in the peripheral nervous system. Oligodendrocytes are neuroectodermal cells that originate from different precursors in the neural tube than astrocytes; later, stem cells in the subependymal layer can continue to generate new oligodendrocytes. Mature oligodendrocytes wrap neighboring axons in myelin, and some oligodendrocytes can simultaneously wrap many axons. However, not all oligodendrocytes myelinate axons. Synonym: oligodendroglia See: illustrationoligodendrocyte A connective cell of the central nervous system (glial cell) that participates in the formation of the myelin sheaths of nerve cell axons.oligodendrocyte
