text: For example, in the spontaneously occurring Long-Evans shaker (les) rat and the shiverer mouse, which both lack a functional myelin basic protein (Mbp) gene (Roach et al., 1985; O'Connor et al., 1999), CNS axons are severely de- or dysmyelinated (Figures 4A,B), but degenerative axonal changes are lacking (Rosenbluth, 1980; Griffiths et al., 1998; Edgar et al., 2004; Smith et al., 2013), presumably owing to unimpaired communication between axons and engulfing oligodendroglial processes (summarised in Figure 5).
