## Abstract Oligodendrocytes elaborate an extensive network of multibranched processes and flat membranous sheets. Microtubules (MT) participate in the elaboration and stabilization of myelin‐forming processes and are essential for cellular sorting processes. Microtubule‐associated proteins (MAPs)

Oligodendrocytes are responsible for the formation and maintenance of the myelin sheaths in the central nervous system (CNS), and microtubules essentially participate in the elaboration and stabilization of myelin-containing cellular processes. We have shown before that the two major groups of neuro
## Abstract The microtubule‐associated protein tau is integral to neuronal process development and has a role in the pathogenesis of several neurodegenerative conditions. We examined possible roles for tau in cultured oligodendrocyte process formation by using antisense oligonucleotide treatment. I
Alz 50 and seven other monoclonal antibodies have been shown to react with both tau and Alzheimer brain proteins of molecular mass 60-70 kDa. The lo- cation of some of the epitopes of these antibodies (Alz 50, Tau-2, NP14, Ab 636.7) on the tau molecule is unknown, whereas those of others (Tau 60, Ta
