## Abstract Inorganic arsenic is an environmental contaminant toxic for key immune cells. We recently reported that low micromolar concentrations of arsenic trioxide (As~2~O~3~) alter functions and differentiation gene program of human macrophages. Particularly, prolonged treatment with As~2~O~3~ c
The myelin proteolipid protein (Plp) gene is expressed in oligodendrocytes and encodes the most abundant protein (approximately 50%) present in mature myelin from the central nervous system (CNS). Plp gene activity is low to nonexistent early in development but sharply increases, concurrently with t
## Abstract The myelin basic protein (MBP) gene produces two families of proteins, the classic MBPs, important for myelination of the CNS, and the golli proteins, whose biological role in oligodendrocytes (OLs) is still unknown. The goals of this work were to study the in vitro pattern of expressio
