Figure 6
Electron micrographs of oligodendrocytes and microglia in white matter from control subjects (a) and from subjects with schizophrenia (b–d). Dystrophic changes of oligodendrocyte, Ol, (b). Activated microglia in close apposition to swollen astrocytic process (Ap) containing myelin debris in schizophrenia brain (c) Microglial cell participates in phagocytosis of myelin membranous debris in schizophrenia (d). Scale bars = 2 μm.
