Astrocytes and oligodendrocytes in grey and white matter regions of the brain metabolize fatty acids

The grey and white matter regions of the mammalian brain consist of both neurons and neuroglial cells. Among the neuroglia, the two macroglia oligodendrocytes and astrocytes are the most abundant cell types. While the major function of oligodendrocytes is the formation of the lipid-rich myelin struc...
