The myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein directly binds nerve growth factor to modulate central axon circuitry
Myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein, expressed on the outermost lamellae of the myelin sheath, is a novel and specific binding partner for NGF that may modulate local concentrations of the neurotrophin in the spinal cord microenvironment.
