title: Why do oligodendrocyte lineage cells express glutamate receptors?
abstract: The function of glutamate receptors on oligodendrocytes and their precursor cells is poorly understood, with their only clear action being to damage these cells in pathological conditions. Here we review recent studies of glutamate signalling to oligodendrocyte lineage cells, and explore what its physiological function may be.
