Perineuronal satellite oligodendrocytes in the mouse have been investigated immunocytochemically using antisera to myelin basic protein and myelin‐associated glycoprotein. In the normal animal, during remye‐lination, and following trauma the staining characteristics of these cells resembled those of other grey and white matter oligodendrocytes. It is concluded that these cells are, in many respects, functionally similar to other oligodendrocytes.
